Nanbu Bijin’s staple “Tokubetsu Junmai” was long known in the U.S. as the one with the butterflies on the label. As the 2017 International Wine Challenge Champion sake, it has graced many national and international dining scenes with its versatility, approachability and honesty in expressing regionality using locally-grown sake rice called Ginotome. Make sure to pause and enjoy its enticing aroma.
