KAGURA SHICHIYO 50 Sake Junmai Daiginjo 720ml

Intense, fruity sake with a lovely umami. The nose is intensely fresh with notes of mint, cucumber and cooked rice, it is very pure. The second nose is still very aromatic with an almost mineral freshness and a lot of finesse. The palate is fresh, fruity with a slight sparkle on the attack. There is a slight roundness that continues into the mid-palate and turns into umami. The finish is aromatic, with a hint of lovely bitters, white peach and rice. It's persistent and refreshing. It is unclarified, undiluted, and pasteurized only once directly in the bottle for maximum aroma and freshness. ­ Kagura is produced by the prestigious Matsui House, located in the heart of Kyoto and rich in three centuries of history.
