Boundless potential
One of Daishichi’s best sellers in the U.S., and also a longtime favorite in Japan, this honjozo’s added distilled alcohol is made from rice so as to stick to the idea that sake should be only rice! The fresh, pine aroma draws you in and then keeps you there once you experience its exquisitely balanced flavors of rice sweetness and umami. Enjoy it cold in summer and warm in winter.

Umami-rich, dried seafood pairs well with kimoto sake. For sake ware, we recommend cups or tools that can be for warmed or chilled sake.
