James Suckling
Yamadanishiki is the most widely used rice used for sake and when blended with the local Reihou rice by well known and well respected Tenzan brewery, the result is a smooth salt-and-sugar rice cracker character with soft mineral water salinity that resonates through the finish. Rice is Reihou, Yamadanishiki. Polishing 65%. Alcohol 15.5%.
