Hakushika Junmai Ginjo is a type of Japanese sake that is made from polished rice, water, and koji mold. It is a premium sake with a smooth and clean taste, and a slightly fruity and floral aroma. Junmai Ginjo sakes have a rice-polishing ratio of 60% or less, meaning that at least 40% of the outer layers of the rice grains have been removed before fermentation. This results in a more refined and delicate flavor profile compared to other types of sake. Hakushika is a well-known sake brewery in Japan that produces a range of high-quality sake products.
