龜泉 Junmai Daiginjo Genshu CEL-24 Aiyama

This time, the black-labeled Kameizumi CEL-24　was brewed with Aiyama rice, known as the "Diamond of sake rice" and prized for its soft texture and rich umami! Compared to the regular Nama-Genshu (unpasteurized and undiluted) version of CEL-24, the polishing ratio has been further refined to 40%.

The aroma offers notes of pineapple and apple, accompanied by hints of Muscat grape and melon. The entry is smooth and delicate, with a sense of transparency. The palate is silky, sweet but not cloying, with a refreshing acidity that showcases the balanced texture brought by the Aiyama rice.

It can be enjoyed on its own to fully appreciate its complex aromas and elegant mouthfeel. It also pairs well with sashimi and sushi, enhancing the freshness of the food without overpowering its flavors.
