A beautiful bottle of bountiful, full-bodied junmai.

This sake rice wine by Gekkeikan, choice sake brewery of the Japanese royal family, is made using 100% Yamada Nishiki rice, widely regarded as the best rice for making exceptional quality sake. With a gentle dryness and profile sitting between clean and complex, this sake is also the perfect introduction into Yamada Nishiki or sake as a whole. Fruity with notes of apple and banana, this sake is best served slightly chilled or at room temperature, with foods rich in umami flavour.

About The Brewery

When Haruhiko Okura, the 14th head of the Okura family and the current President of Gekkeikan, was appointed to his position in 1997 he established the core principles to be “Quality, Creativity, Humanity.” This was a clear statement outlining the values that the company had always tacitly understood to be part of their work over successive generations: quality above all, innovation and challenges, and respecting humanity.
