W (W) Akita Sake Komachi Junmai Unfiltered Sake Pasteurized 720ml/1800ml
【W Akita Sakakomachi Junmai Muroka Genshu Hiire】
Although it is Junmai Daiginjo for enjoying the rich umami and flavor of rice, it is purposely released as Junmai-shu.
The limited-production, build-to-order "W Series" from Watanabe Brewery is brewed for select liquor stores that will lead the future of sake.
The "W" in the brand name stands for Watanabe Brewery, World, and Warai (laughter).
W Akita Sakakomachi is a feminine sake of exceptional elegance and sweetness, exuding a mellow aroma reminiscent of rich, glossy white peaches.
It has an elegant sweetness and a crisp, light finish.
The "W Series" is rated as Junmai Daiginjo with rice polished to 50%, but it is labeled as Junmai-shu.
This is because they do not believe that further polishing rice or manipulating numbers approaches the true essence of what the W Series aims for.
