Tasting Note:

Helmed by the first non-Japanese Toji (Master Brewer) Philip Harper, a well-documented individual who has helped expanded the Sake culture internationally, Tamagawa represents Kyoto’s distinct compact taste and flavours at its highest standards. In this Junmai Ginjyo, the use of the ancient rice Omachi proved no challenge to Tamagawa; the acidity and heaviness is well-balanced with little to no bitterness (a common tendency in Omachi-brewed Sake). Filled with nutty, herbal and dried fruit overtones, a single sip is never enough to fully comprehend this Sake’s complexity.
