Daimon “Road to Osaka” Nigori
Osaka prefecture
A drier nigori, anyone?
Sake brewed with the intention of returning to the beginning and connecting to ancestors, the label has Harada written by a local calligrapher, signaling the plentiful fresh water and rice fields that fuel their passion. This sake has a gorgeous ginjo aroma reminiscent of blooming white flowers—delicate and alluring. The flavor is elegant with sweet rice confectionary and blood orange that flow into a fruit finish.
