Indigo

Robustly clean with rich, elegant flavour hues. Indigo dyers strive for vivid, deep colour. This sake has similar qualities. A perfect expression of the “taste” rather than “aroma” style of ginjo sake-making.

Rich, expressive flavour, genteel clarity and balance—these are the characteristics of sakes from Sohomare, established by the Kono family in 1872. Unusually, Sohomare uses “Designation A” Yamadanishiki rice not only for its premium “Kimoto Junmai Daiginjo” but for its “Tokubetsu Kimoto” and “Karakuchi” junmai labels as well.
