This sake is made with Iwai sake rice grown without agricultural chemicals by a contract farmer in Kyoto. It has been carefully nurtured to preserve its rich, mellow flavor and natural sweetness, while still focusing on freshness. We recommend enjoying this in a shallow, wide-rimmed cup to help savor every sip and hit the wide parts of your palate, or a thin glass if enjoying it chilled.
