Junmai Daiginjo Hitokiwa 45

Junmai Daiginjo Hitokiwa 45
A carefully brewed junmai daiginjo, handmade in small batches (kojikomi). The rice is soaked for an extremely precise amount of time, calculated to the second (gentei kyusui). The result is a sake that never bores, and the best representative of the Hitokiwa series, which proposes a refined version of Chiyomusubi’s typical features: intense umami, balanced taste, clean finish.
