The somber black label with an English name is the perfect presentation for this ultra-dry brew. In fact, it is 3X drier than a normal Junmai. Don't let the label fool you. It is full of umami resulting in a distinctive aftertaste and sharpness that is unparalleled in the sake industry. Brewed by the Imayo Tsukasa Shuzo in the Niigata Prefecture is sharp and smooth and easily enjoyed.

Sake Social, in partnership with JETRO [Japanese External Trade Organziation], is deeply committed to the continued promotion of Japanese sake, shochu, and related goods. Through education and shared knowledge, we encourage novice and expert consumers to try, enjoy, and share Japanese sake and shochu.
