Azakura Akita Sakekomachi Junmai Ginjo

Akita Sakekomachi is an original sake rice developed by the Agricultural Experiment Station of Akira prefecture aiming to be a quality sake rice like the yamadanishiki. This sake rice tends to produce sake that is clean and soft but Azakura has made a sake with a stronger body. Using Akita Yukiguni UT-2 yeast, suitable for storage at room temperature, this sake has a reserved aroma and a good balance between acidity and clean aftertaste. This sake is more reserved in the series of 3 sake. It is one that fits well with any cuisine.
