Masumi's ideal Junmai. Mellow and mild-mannered in all aspects, with subtle, organic flavors and a hint of rice sweetness. It is aimed to keep a hint of the original rice flavors, and the soft water used in the Suwa kura was perfect for this.

Rice:  Sankei Nishiki, Miyama Nishiki, Hitogokochi (all Nagano Pref.)
Yeast: Masumi No. 7
Polishing: 70%
15% alcohol

Masumi is one of the great names of the sake world, admired throughout Japan for its unshakable down-to-earth reliability. The brewery where it is made was founded in 1662 in the town of Suwa, where a tradition of precision craftsmanship had led to the development of the silk spinning trade. Masumi achieved great prominence in 1946 with the discovery of a new yeast variety, “Nanago” or Association No. 7. With its gentle aroma and ease of use Nanago continues to be used by over half of the breweries in Japan.

Suitable for Japanese comfort food like grilled fish, yakitori, teriyaki, sukiyaki, nabe hotpots.
