About the brewery : The history of the Akashi brewery dates back to the end of the Tokugawa period (1600-1867), when the factory that originally produced the soy sauce decided in 1918 to devote itself to rice processing into sake. Making the most of what the beautiful surroundings of the Hyogo region could offer, she began to produce sakes whose quality only improved over time. Today, it is an international recognition that earns him a reputation and allows him to develop a wide range of very qualitative products.
Detailed tasting notes : This sake offers a rich, balanced sensory experience. On the nose, an explosion of aromas delights the senses, with notes of melon, lemon, bitter orange, sage and subtle herbaceous nuances.

The finish is marked by persistent length, leaving a memorable impression on the palate.
