About this Sake

Ryusei Yamadanishiki Goshu" is a Junmai Daiginjo namazake (unpasteurized sake) made entirely with Yamada Nishiki rice. Freshly pressed and bottled as is, it has a mellow banana-like aroma and a luscious cotton candy-like scent unique to namazake. The taste is rich, thick, and elegantly sweet, with a long aftertaste.

Ryusei

The Ryusei brand, designed by the original brewery founder, has a long history, dating back to when it won the inaugral Annual Japan Sake Awards in 1907. Unfortunately, Ryusei disappeared during the period around World War II, when junmai sake production was prohibited due to rice shortages. However, 30 years later, the fifth generation of the family business successfully revived Ryusei sake and brought it back to the market.
