Ilaka Gin Indigo Kinmonnishiki Namazake (720ml) 甍 銀・藍(あい) 金紋錦 無濾過生原酒

Indigo - within Japanese culture, the colour evokes beauty & craftsmanship;  this release captures the beautiful terroir of Matsukawa village with the brewing mastery & artistry of Katsumi Tanaka, with a career spanning 30 years celebrated with awards & accolades.

Kinmonishiki sakamai is cultivated with low levels of agro-chemicals within a 5km radius of the brewery. Hints of passionfruit & lactonic undertones on the nose lures you into taking a first sip which unravels complex yet gorgeous umami characteristic of this Nagano varietal.  Light effervescence tapers off from the mid-palate & leads to an off-dry finish.

金紋錦の骨格を生かしつつ、どこかクールで縦に伸びる味わいを表現した「インディゴ」ラベル。透明感のある酸と旨味が調和します。
