S. TOKYO JUNMAI GINJO
Saccharomyces tokyo Nakazawa was discovered in 1909 by the distant ancestor during his research on fermentation in Germany. The 11th generation revived the yeast with the goal of making a commemorative sake for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. The resulting sake is full of traditional sake umami character but with a fruity and refreshing character like biting into ripe Muscat grapes.
Tasting Notes: Floral and perfumed with notes of ripe Muscat. This sake is juicy and refreshing with just a hint of sweetness.
