Nabeshima Shizuku Junmai Daiginjo (720ml) 鍋島 しずく純米大吟醸

This is the Grand Cru among the impressive line-up of Nabeshima Junmai Daiginjos. Less than 380 bottles are released each brewing year & we are delighted to receive very limited allocation annually for Singapore.

The purity, clarity & balance is clearly what you would expect from Iimori-san, one of Japan's most respected Owner/Toji.

The Nabeshima label design is classic and easily recognizable with the prominent characters in bold calligraphy. The sake is known for its bright character, elegant and refined, yet powerful and impactful. Flavour profiles are unique and range from fruity to umami rich and dry. All sakes are Muroka, not passing through charcoal filtration which also helps to maintain a fresh and lively quality. The brand is the winner of many awards over the last two decades including many awards at the IWC since 2011.
