KINOENE DAIGINJO YAMADANISHIKI 40 甲子 大吟醸 山田錦 40 720ml
Brewed by Iinuma Honke (飯沼本家) in Chiba Prefecture, Kinoene Daiginjo Yamada Nishiki 40 (甲子 大吟醸 山田錦 40) represents the pinnacle of the Kinoene range — an elegant, aromatic Daiginjo brewed with precision and grace.
Made using 100% Yamada Nishiki rice, the most celebrated sake rice in Japan, polished to an extraordinary 40%, this Daiginjo delivers an exquisite bouquet of melon, white peach, and lily flowers, followed by a smooth, airy palate and a clean, lingering finish.
It embodies the Tanrei Karakuchi (light and refined) style — sophisticated, balanced, and endlessly graceful.
