Despite its pale visage, this Daiginjo matured at low temperatures displays a mellowness not found in newly/freshly brewed sake.

It is a light, matured type that pairs well with dishes where the ingredients are center stage.
Message from the brewery:
"The sake's name comes from the Buddhist word Daichi Yuki Manman" (lit: vast expanse of snowy land) "and delivers the same satisfaction and excitement as the titular, snowy landscape."

Tasting comments

Nobuhiro Ueno
(Juku to Kan Bar Master / Permanent Director of the Toki Sake Association)The ginjo-style orthonasal aroma is rich, but the aggressiveness of new sake is gone, and the scent is sweet and pleasant. The moderate sweetness is balanced by the light astringency and acidity. The slight bitterness in your throat actually invites a second sip.

Hidekazu Ishiwata
(Former National Tax Bureau Chief Appraiser)Opens with a gentle ginjo aroma. It has a rounded and clean visage.
The retronasal aroma is reminiscent of ripe apples accompanied by a light sweetness.
Subtle sweetness and smooth texture. A lingering aftertaste. -
Akiko Toda
(Director of ITTEKI, Japan Sake and Meat Research Institute)The aroma is reminiscent of ripe strawberries, yellow-green apples, and spring flowers. When you put it in your mouth, it's very smooth, with a soft sweetness reminiscent of rice popsicles or candy, but it has a sharp finish, perhaps due to the high alcohol content.

Yuji Yamauchi
(Yushima Tenjinshita Sushi Hatsu 4th generation / 1st JSA SAKE DIPLOMA competition winner)A calm, gentle fruit scent and a sweet cream scent.
The taste is smooth with a hint of sweetness.
A smooth sake that goes well with elegant Japanese sweets.
