Product details
Ryusei Ryofu Namanama Junmai Ginjo Kimoto Nama Sake is a limited seasonal release crafted to capture the essence of early summer. Brewed using the traditional Kimoto method and entirely from Yamada Nishiki rice polished to 60%, this unpasteurized sake offers a vibrant, youthful character with elevated acidity and a crisp, clean finish. Its refreshing profile is designed to complement summer vegetables and light seasonal dishes, making it the perfect companion for warm-weather dining. The natural fermentation process, free from added yeast, highlights the purity of the ingredients, resulting in a sake that is both rich in umami and elegantly aromatic. Released in mid-May, it provides a revitalizing boost during the warmer months, making it ideal for sipping chilled as temperatures rise.
The sake’s foundation, Yamada Nishiki rice, is renowned as the pinnacle of sake-brewing rice, prized for its large grains, low protein content, and excellent water absorption. Developed in 1923 through careful crossbreeding, this premium rice is favored for producing refined, fragrant, and well-balanced sake. Ryusei Ryofu takes full advantage of these qualities, delivering a smooth mouthfeel and layered complexity that evolve beautifully with each sip. Whether enjoyed alongside seasonal dishes or savored on its own, this sake embodies the rejuvenating spirit of summer, offering a moment of tranquility and pleasure in every glass.
