Japan’s first Nama-Sake launched in 1972 pioneered the new trend of Nama-Sake sparking the Nama-sake boom. Being un-pasteurized and undiluted allows you to enjoy the fruity aroma and fresh full bodied flavor of this Sake, and 19% ABV gives you a high-impact sensory experience. Because of the delicate nature of un-pasteurized Sake, this product is sold in a can to shield it from the light.Being un-pasteurized, this can sake can be aged in your own fridge as long as you lilke. After 1 year or so, the flavor will turn mellower, fuller developing velvety mouth feel. You'll enjoy a completely different experience than when you try it fresh.

The King of Sake Rice: Sake made with Yamada Nishiki rice tends to be fragrant, fruity, elegant, and complex. It also polishes extremely well making it adept at making light and fruity ginjo-shu.
Soft, excellent water. Historically Hiroshima is an important sake prefecture, long famous for quality and technological developments. Soft, slightly sweet sake overall.
