Megane Senyo (720ml) 萩の鶴 メガネ専用

An expertly developed recipe involving 2 separate brews made with 2 separate yeasts, then blended to balance out the 2 different characters, fusing the 2 into a sake which contains the bright acidity of Ringo San Yeast and the floral aroma of Ginjo Yeast.

全員メガネの蔵人で醸す人気酒の「メガネ専用」。今年は、やや甘めの吟醸酵母仕込みと、酸味のあるリンゴ酸酵母仕込みの日本酒をブレンドしています。キレイな香りと、優しく甘酸っぱいキュートな味わい。発酵時に生じる炭酸ガスを意図的に抜くことにより、フレッシュ感と柔らかさを両立させています。
