【Yamashiroya Hodare】

Beyond transparency, an exquisite lingering finish.

This sake is a superb blend of multiple tanks, each aged quietly for six months.

It offers a gentle and subtle ginjo aroma.
Fruity notes and the soft sweetness of rice spread delicately.
A rounded, gentle umami fills the mouth, followed by a transparent, clean finish that disappears smoothly.
While retaining Yamashiroya's traditional sharpness, a new softness has been added, creating a taste that is both a return to its origins and an evolution.

Served chilled, it offers a clear sensation. Warmed to body temperature, it becomes even mellower, with the umami and aroma of the rice gently rising.

It pairs excellently with fatty autumn mackerel, bonito, and tempura seasoned with salt.
It is also recommended for pairing with cheese and light Western dishes.
