Yauemon “Junmai Daiginjo”
Fukushima prefecture
A dream from a small team
This sake is proof that you don’t need a large company to produce good sake. There can be too many cooks in the kitchen, or should we say too many brewers in the brewery. Crafted by a team of just four, this sake brings you a taste of local charm. Its aroma delivers a peaceful feeling. The flavor comprises dried apricot and peach with a little anise in the aftertaste.
