十四代 中取り 純米 無濾過 生 詰

The Juyondai Junmai Muroka is an elegant, sophisticated, and deeply complex Old World style Japanese sake that beautifully captures the pristine alpine waters and historic craftsmanship of Yamagata Prefecture. It pours crystal clear with brilliant, watery reflections in the glass, lifting with an immediate, aromatic bouquet of delicate floral notes, ripe musk melon, and fresh green apples, seamlessly layered with complex undertones of steamed sweet rice, honeydew, and a hint of white peach. On the palate, this full-bodied, pure-rice sake is remarkably smooth, juicy, and round, coating the mouth with pure, velvety intensities of rich cream, subtle sweetness, and a generous, expansive wave of natural umami. Because it is left completely unfiltered by charcoal (Muroka), it maintains maximum structural depth, flavor concentration, and texturally rich sophistication. Driven by a finely balanced, food-friendly acidity and a supple, luxuriously soft framework, it carries into a long, persistent, and clean finish accented by a lingering touch of crisp mineral freshness and fruity clarity.
