Raifuku Junmai Daiginjo Asahi 16% 720Ml

Asahi rice is an old, low-yield sake rice (ancestor of Omachi). It’s harder to brew but gives:

• deeper umami

• softer, rounder texture

• less flashy aroma, more elegance

Profile

• Aroma: Gentle ginjo fruit (pear, melon), steamed rice

• Taste: Smooth entry, subtle sweetness, layered umami

• Finish: Clean, soft, refined

Food Pairing

• Sashimi & sushi

• Steamed fish, shellfish

• Light soy or dashi-based dishes

• Kaiseki-style cuisine

Serving

• Best chilled (8–12°C)

• Also lovely at cool room temp where umami opens up
