Product details
Daitengu "Green Crow Mask" Tokubetsu Junmai is a distinguished sake that embodies the rich heritage and meticulous craftsmanship of Daitengu Shuzo, a family-owned brewery in Fukushima, Japan. Under the guidance of fifth-generation toji, Saori Kobari, the brewery upholds traditional brewing techniques, including the use of funashibori (vat press) and small-batch production. This dedication ensures that each vintage offers a unique expression, with subtle variations reflecting the nuances of the year and brewing tank. The sake is brewed using Yume no Kaori rice polished to 60%, resulting in a Tokubetsu Junmai of exceptional quality.
Upon tasting, the "Green Crow Mask" reveals a grassy aroma and a palate rich in umami, culminating in a long, banana-yogurt finish that invites another sip. Its harmonious balance and depth make it an ideal companion to a variety of dishes, enhancing flavors without overpowering them. The sake is presented in a 600ml bottle and includes an ochoko (sake cup) and a felt display mat, adding to its appeal as both a beverage and a conversation piece at the table. Whether enjoyed during a meal or as part of a contemplative tasting, Daitengu "Green Crow Mask" Tokubetsu Junmai offers a memorable experience for both novices and connoisseurs alike.
