The first impression is an elegant and gorgeous bouquet that evokes a sense of dignified refinement. Alongside fruit notes of Golden Delicious apple and Chinese quince (Karin), the fresh citrus aroma of grapefruit zest provides a vibrant accent. Hints of honeysuckle and a green bamboo-like crispness further enhance the complexity. On the palate, it maintains its poised character; the light, soaring acidity and subtle sweetness melt together with grace. Its smooth texture brings the entire profile into a sophisticated, well-balanced harmony, leading to a floral and lingering finish.

Special Notes
About The Brewery
Kokuryu (黑龍酒造)
Founded in 1804 in Eiheiji, Fukui Prefecture, Kokuryu is a legendary brewery renowned for its pursuit of "absolute purity and elegance." A visionary in the industry, Kokuryu was one of the first to adopt French wine concepts of vintage and maturation for sake. Using pristine snowmelt water from Mt. Hakusan and premium Yamada Nishiki rice, their sake features a silky texture and profound complexity. Flagship labels like "Nizaemon" and "Ishidaya" have long been served at Japanese Imperial banquets, cementing their status in the luxury market. Kokuryu stands not only as a master of Fukui’s terroir but as a pinnacle of sake craftsmanship for global collectors.
