Sake Terms: Junmai Ginjo
|
Fragrant, elegant, and full of character—Junmai Ginjo sake is crafted with rice polished to at least 60% of its original size, brewed without any added alcohol. Slow, cold fermentation brings out fruity and floral aromas, with a refined balance on the palate. A versatile style, it’s perfect for enjoying slightly chilled to appreciate its delicate complexity.
