JUNMAI DAIGINJO, 'SELECTION N' ZAKU

The success of Zaku is due in no small part to their tireless and innovative Toji brewmaster Tomohiro Uchiyama. He brings a boundless optimism, an acute attention to the finest details of sake making and an incredibly sensitive palate. The “Selection N” sake is his personal pick for the best tank produced in any given brewing season. He chooses a sake that exemplifies the best qualities of Zaku: clarity, crystalline texture, light notes of citrus, and a refreshing, lively finish.
