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.
