38% Yamada Nishiki | Hyogo | Est. 1917 | Melon, Salty Lemon, Sage

1. With a 38% polishing ratio, this sake highlights the heart of Yamada Nishiki rice, known as the “king of sake rice,” for an ultra-refined, silky texture.

2. Genshu power: Bottled undiluted, so it carries a touch more alcohol and flavor intensity

3. The coastal air and mineral-rich water lend a saline brightness that complements the melon-sage aromatics beautifully.

Mantensei “Star Filled Sky” Junmai Ginjo

Aged 3 Years | 50% Yamada Nishiki & Tamakasae | Tottori | Est. 1859 | Vanilla Caramel, Soy Sauce, Smoked Salt
