Description

Zao Junmai Ginjo K Usunigori is a lightly cloudy junmai ginjo from the brewery's K series, leaving fine rice solids in suspension for added texture and a soft, gentle sweetness. The usunigori style softens the edges of the junmai ginjo base while retaining its clean, food-compatible character. Soft Zao spring water shapes the clean underlying profile.

Founded in Meiji 6. In response to the blessings of Zao's underflowing water, the cold wind of Zao, and the Zao Mountain Range, we consistently brew the quality first sake.
