The "Kikuizumi Daiginjyo" is a "daiginjo" sake (a superpremium type of sake) made from the Hyogo Prefecture's "king of sake rice" "Yamadanishiki", refined down to 40% and brewed. Carefully made by hand following the traditional methods, making use of the techniques passed down by the Iwate Prefecture's association of brewers Nanbu Toji, representative of Japan. You will be able to enjoy a subtle fragrance, reminiscent of green apples, together with a rich flavor on which sharpness and an outstanding mellowness are combined. This is a sake that can be associated with white wine. Recognized worldwide as a top quality Daiginjo sake, it has been awarded first place, twice, in the "daiginjo" category of the world's most prestigious wine competition, the International Wine Challenge (IWC).
