HIRAIZUMI Yamahai Junmai Maruhi No.77
The Yamahai Junmai series is characterised by the use of a different yeast strain for each entry. This one makes use of the Kyokai 77 type, which is highly acidic. An experimental sake that tastes like white wine with green apple notes, to the point that it almost does not resemble a sake.
TYPE: Yamahai junmai sake

SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Serve well chilled (4-8 ºC)
