Juyondai Honmaru Hiden Dama Gaeshi 1.8L 十四代 本丸 秘傳玉返

Regarded as the King of Sake, Juyondai is a rare gem in the world of sake, known for its elusive availability and substantial value. It's internationally acclaimed as a 'phantom sake' due to its scarce supply. Juyondai breaks the traditional 'light and dry' style, focusing on brewing sake with a rich fruity aroma. Through innovative cultivation of the ingredient rice, and relentless refinement of top-tier brewing skills, Japanese sake has made its way to the international stage, with Juyondai rightfully earning the title of 'King of Sake.' 

The Tokubetsu Honjozo is one of the signature sake from Juyondai, and one best to familiarise yourself with their rich and velvety style. Using Gohyakumangoku rice polished to 55%, this sake has copious amount of umami feel with a pleasing off-dry finish that pairs extremely well with a broad range of food.

Other Reviews....
This medium-dry NV Juyondai Honmaru Tokubetsu Honjozo is elegant and floral, with scents of white flower, citrus, cherry, peach and a hint of pine nut. Spicy on the mid-palate and full-bodied, it has a short, clean finish (kire) and its Gohyakumangoku rice is polished to 55% seimaibuai. Takagi Shuzo uses their brewery’s own rice spirit as an addition to this sake.

ABV: 15%
