Yasutaka Daimon is the sixth-generation director of the family brewery. His kura (saké brewery) is blessed with a natural spring providing water which is rich in minerals and pure enough to be used in the production of excellent sake.

Aromas of peach and powdered sugar. On the palate, the flavors head toward apricot, peach skin, and a touch of anise. This medium bodied sake presents a unique combination of a dry, crisp sake that also has amazing complexity of flavor. Great balance too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Stephen Tanzer IWC : 86 Points Aug 2007

Pale, bright color with a bit of yellow. Assertive, highpitched aromas of squash and white pepper. Smooth and fine-grained, with good life in the mouth. Finishes clean and bright if a bit generic, with repeating flavor of squash. The Kizakura Brewery is located in the southern part of the Kyoto prefecture, the oldest saké brewing area in Japan.
