🍶 A Gold Medal winner at the National New Sake Tasting Competition, this Junmai Daiginjo sake offers an elegant aroma and a rich, full-bodied rice flavor that harmonizes exquisitely. Made from Yamadanishiki rice polished to 38%, it embodies the epitome of refined craftsmanship.

Produced in Hyogo, Japan, Hijiri Yamadanishiki Evoke stands out as a product of the region renowned for the finest Yamada Nishiki rice. The grains are cultivated and harvested with unmatched precision, contributing to the sake's exceptional quality.

Delicate and aromatic, this sake presents notes of ripe pear skin, green apple, and honeydew melon. A slightly sweet entry transitions to a drier profile with flinty minerality, complemented by hints of sugarcane and roasted almond.

At a robust 18-20% ABV, it is best enjoyed chilled, making it a versatile choice for pairing with elegant appetizers or as a standalone delight.
