Pale lemon-yellow with clarity. Fresh aromas of green apple, pear, and white flowers are accented by subtle rice sweetness. Light and agile on the palate, with smooth Junmai Ginjo texture and refreshing acidity at its core; gentle bitterness and minerality shape a clean, versatile finish well suited to food pairing.

A pale, transparent appearance. Subtle aromas of steamed rice, Japanese pear, and white peach are joined by faint lactic and herbal nuances. The smooth palate shows composed umami from a single pasteurization, with balanced sweetness and acidity; gentle bitterness tightens the finish, which fades quietly and cleanly.

A pale, crystal-clear appearance. Pure fruit aromas of white peach, pear, and apple intertwine with delicate violet and white floral notes, evoking the pristine terroir of Kurodashō. The palate is exceptionally smooth, with refined sweetness and umami characteristic of Junmai Daiginjo unfolding quietly, supported by vibrant acidity. Subtle minerality and a core of rice emerge mid-palate, leading to a long, graceful finish marked by elegance and transparency.

A transparent appearance with notable density. The aroma is gentle, featuring steamed rice and freshly cooked grains, accented by nutty tones and white pepper. The palate is bold and structured, with the thick umami typical of Junmai Genshu forming the backbone, while the natural savoriness of 70% polished rice spreads honestly across the mid-palate. Firm acidity and light bitterness emerge toward the finish, carrying long, lingering umami.

Distinctive aroma reminiscent of Frangelico, blending hazelnut, coffee, cocoa, and vanilla extracts. Despite its sweet aroma, the palate centers on apricot and quince-like acidity. Smooth and long on the finish without stickiness, leaving a refined impression.

Minty aromas of fennel and Japanese citrus introduce freshness. On the palate, hints of enoki and maitake mushrooms combine with toasted sesame and root-vegetable tones like burdock and potato, adding depth. Dry yet full-bodied, with layered complexity.

Fresh raspberry and violet aromas. Bright acidity of blood orange and cherry creates liveliness, balanced by fine tannins and a hint of white pepper spice that grounds the light body. Earthy undertones pair beautifully with root or braised dishes.
