Crafted to be food friendly, this brew offers a masterful interplay of sweetness, sourness and a touch of bitterness. It invites you in with charming notes of lychee and grape, and embraces the natural umami of the rice. This junmai ginjo finishes crisp to cleanse the senses. Whether enjoyed chilled to heighten its fruitiness or slightly warm to embrace its savory core, this silver label is a sophisticated mealtime beverage.

“It opens with a generous sweetness, but never feels cloying. Gentle bitterness and bright acidity gradually take over, leaving a beautifully dry, refreshing finish that keeps you coming back for another sip.”
