Juyondai Nakatori Junmai Ginjo Omachi 1.8L 十四代 中取り純米吟醸 赤磐雄町

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.' 

Whereas Yamadanishiki is known as the king of sake rice, Omachi is hailed as the queen. Flavours here are often softer and fruitier, with melon, cantaloupe, and apple overlaying subtle herbaceous notes.

This medium sweet NV Juyondai Akaiwa Omachi Junmai Ginjo shows restrained toasted rice, melon and candied peach scents, offering a creamy, savory and powerful texture. It has a long, spicy and sweet finish. Akaiwa is considered to be one of the best sites for Omachi in Okayama prefecture.
