Made from Yamada Nishiki rice milled to 65% of the original size, leaving this sake rich and full, bursting with umami and a deep bass notes of soy sauce mingled with grains and freshly cut herbs. Junmai sake tend to be quiet and restrained, but like everything Azumaichi makes this has a fascinating complexity wrapped in a delicious bundle.

Gochoda Brewery is one of the world’s only “domaine style” sake breweries as they grow all their own high quality rice themselves on their own fields before switching to brewing.
