As a Junmai Ginjo, this sake offers an elegant and refined aromatic profile, filled with attractive fruit notes and delicate Ginjo fragrances. On the palate, it showcases Gasanryu's signature clarity and transparency, delivering a graceful and pristine character with remarkable definition and purity. The flavor profile is light, crisp, and refreshing, leaving a clean and invigorating impression without any unnecessary heaviness. Its easy-drinking nature and refreshing elegance make it particularly enjoyable when served well chilled during the warmer months, perfectly capturing the spirit of summer.
"Asagao" is the summer seasonal release from Gasanryu's highly regarded Betsuatsurae series, inspired by the morning glory flower that blooms during the height of summer. The sake is designed to express a fresh and elegant seasonal character while reflecting the beauty of the Japanese summer. It is brewed using Tamanae, a premium sake rice variety developed in Yamagata Prefecture. Although cultivation volumes remain limited, Tamanae has attracted increasing attention in recent years due to its outstanding brewing potential and ability to produce refined, expressive sake.
