Description
Dan Junmai Ginjo
With a name meaning “daybreak” this sake is the start of a new line of sake for Sasaichi Brewing Company. Their goal with this sake was to bring out the best possible flavor of the rice while also keeping the soft taste of the water used in brewing, and they nailed it. The crystalline, mineral texture boosts the sweet rice taste, and further sipping reveals undertones of peach or nectarine.

The refreshing aroma of pear and green plum is complemented by flavors that are round and balanced, with a hint of banana. The sake is crisp with a dry finish.
