[Kenshin Junmai Ginjo Aiyama Nama-zake]
The elegance of Wasanbon sugar, with a crystal-clear finish.
A bottle that pursues a more refined drinking experience while leveraging the elegant sweetness unique to Aiyama rice.
While capturing the high-quality, gentle sweetness reminiscent of Wasanbon sugar inherent to Hyogo-grown "Aiyama," this year's version is designed to be slightly less sweet than the last.
Upon entering the mouth, the full-bodied sweetness characteristic of Aiyama spreads gently, accompanied by a pleasant, mild berry-like fruit aroma.
For the yeast, we have employed Yeast No. 6, a rarity for Kenshin.
The harmony between its classical character and fresh profile results in an elegant, refreshing taste.
As you continue to drink, the beautiful sweetness typical of Aiyama leaves a lingering, gentle impression before fading softly, ensuring a pleasant mouthfeel until the very last drop.
Rather than striving for a sharp, dramatic finish, it offers a delicate charm where the aftertaste unravels gently and beautifully.
Beyond the taste right after opening, the way it gradually transforms over several days to a week is a charm unique to this bottle.
Please enjoy the flavors that expand as time passes.
