The aroma opens with notes of honeyed apple and yellow plum, layered with refreshing nuances of citrus peel and delicate hints of white lily and sweet vanilla. The bouquet is complex and refined. On the palate, it is silky and smooth, revealing the deep umami developed through long aging. Elegant sweetness and a soft, rounded structure resonate in harmony, creating a multi-layered, luxurious flavor experience. The finish is long, velvety, and endlessly aromatic — truly a one-of-a-kind masterpiece from Kokuryu.
From the prestigious Fukui brewery Kokuryu, this special limited release Daiginjo Ryu 50th Anniversary commemorates the 50th anniversary of the iconic Daiginjo Ryu. Since its debut in 1975, Ryu has been a pioneering expression of the daiginjo style and remains one of Japan’s most beloved long-selling sakes. Brewed with Hyogo-grown Yamada Nishiki polished to 40% and matured for five years under ice-temperature conditions, this anniversary edition is deeper and more elegant than the standard release.
Released only once in an extremely limited quantity, the bottle design exudes refined luxury, symbolizing the heritage and prestige of this special milestone sake.
