SAKE SWEETNESS

DESCRIPTION
A pronounced Yamahai nose of enoki mushrooms, cedar, nut husks and autumn leaves. Extremely complex, rich, gamey, with wild umami. Playful, yet thought provoking.
SOMMELIER'S NOTES
This is a very classic junmai ginjo. Previously known as Kiminoi Kurahiden, the "Emperor's Well", it is an old recipe, first made in the 1930s.
