Atagonomatsu Gin no Iroha Junmai Daiginjo

あたごのまつ 吟のいろは 純米大吟醸

This Junmai Daiginjo is crafted with 100% Gin no Iroha sake rice, grown exclusively in Miyagi Prefecture. To highlight the unique character of this rare rice, it’s brewed using a yeast that produces a soft, subtle aroma. The result is a fresh, light, and exceptionally clean sake with sharp clarity—thanks to its naturally low amino acid content, making it the sharpest expression within the Atagonomatsu range.  About the Rice – Gin no Iroha Gin no Iroha (Tohoku Sake No. 218) is Miyagi’s second original sake rice, introduced 20 years after Kura no Hana. It is a hybrid of Miyagi’s Genki Maru and Yamagata’s Dewa no Sato, bred for high yield, cold resistance, and excellent brewing characteristics. The large, elliptical grains offer a high shinpaku (starch core) rate, ideal for Junmai Daiginjo production.
