SENKIN KAME NO O
SENKIN MODERN KAME NO O JUNMAI DAIGINJO
In autumn, golden stalks in hand-cultivated paddies sway with the weight of Kame No O, a rare, pure sake rice strain. Senkin Modern Kame No O, part of their “modern” series, is brewed with this revered rice using contemporary methods. The sake showcases the rice’s wild character with a savory aftertaste, bright elegance, and peach-like depth. Its silky mouthfeel and refreshing brightness shine, and the brewery recommends sipping it from a Bordeaux glass to fully appreciate its sensory potential.
