Kuheiji Kyou Din

Kamoshibito Kuheiji 'Kyouden' is a junmai daiginjo sake crafted with Omachi rice, known for its rich and earthy characteristics. The Kuheiji brand, led by brewery president Kuheji Kuno, embraces the concepts of terroir and domaine, with brewing that begins in their own cultivated rice fields. This vintage sake showcases wine-like elegance and finesse, made using the sokujo method with rice polished to 40%. Despite Omachi's typically bold profile, Kyouden exhibits crystalline elegance with balanced acidity and a lush, long finish.
