Arashido Junmai Daiginjo Aiyama Nama

The popular "Arashido" brand's first Aiyama!

The "Arashido" series, a popular brand, has released its first Junmai Daiginjo made with Aiyama rice, drawing significant attention.

Poured into a glass, it releases a gorgeous, fresh ginjo aroma reminiscent of pineapple, with a subtle hint of effervescence immediately after opening, providing a pleasant accent.

The mouthfeel is smooth and exceptionally clear, with a pure sake quality harmoniously blending with the elegant, light sweetness derived from Aiyama.
The refreshing acidity tightens the overall profile, delivering a fruity umami while leaving a crisp, clean finish.

This is a truly special bottle, combining freshness with a high level of perfection.

○About the sake name Arashido
Arashido (嵐童) means a child (童) who brings a new breath (嵐) to the brewery.
This sake represents a new challenge, brewed in a brewery located in a region rich with water.
In the character "嵐" (Arashi), "山" (yama) represents the sacred Mt. Chokai, and "風" (kaze) represents the harsh winter winds that blow from the Sea of Japan towards Mt. Chokai, bringing abundant brewing water to its foothills.
"童" (do) represents the brewery's presence in such a water-rich "里" (sato - village) and "立" (tatsu - standing).
