Kaze No Mori "Wind of the Woods" Junmai Muroka Nama Genshu

Kaze no Mori "Wind of the Woods" Junmai Muroka Nama Genshu is produced in Nara Prefecture using locally grown Akitsuho rice milled to 65%. This unpasteurized sake is bottled immediately after pressing without filtration, preserving its natural vitality. It undergoes natural in-bottle secondary fermentation, creating a naturally effervescent character. The brewery utilizes mineral-rich semi-hard water from 100-meter deep wells, which adds weight and depth to the sake's fresh profile. The brewers designed this sake to deliver a tank-fresh experience, capturing the essence of just-pressed sake. Serve chilled.
