Taiyozakari Daiginjo

A particularly Niigata-style junmai that brings out the best in the locally grown Go Hyaku Man Goku sake rice.

Tokubetsu junmai ("special pure") is a special designation for high-quality sake. To qualify as tokubetsu junmai, a sake must be made with rice polished to less than 60 percent of its original weight, and must not be fortified with distilled alcohol.

The usual peculiarities of the junmai class are downplayed, even as the flavor is finished with a characteristically refreshing acidity.
