Along with daiginjo, junmai daiginjo is widely considered to be the most premium type of sake. The rice is polished down to 50% or less of the original grain, which requires time, precision and resources. Because of this, junmai daiginjo results in some of the most elegant, clean-tasting sake in existence. It also means that the price tag is generally higher than other sake categories — at Tippsy, anywhere between $30 and $3,000 a bottle.
