Our sake
"Matsunotsukasa" line-up
- Matsunotsukasa Daiginjo Ultimus
- ABV: 16％
Rice: Yamadanishiki rice grown in the old Tojo area of Hyogo Prefecture※1
Milling ratio: 30％ - The techniques honed throughout the long history of the Matsunotsukasa brewery find their full expression in this modern, refined daiginjo sake.
The rice used to make this sake is top-grade Yamadanishiki grown in the Special A-rated old Tojo area of Hyogo Prefecture, which is then intensively milled to leave just 30％ of the rice grain.
The name Ultimus is taken from the word "ultimate", signifying both the beginning and the end, highlighting this sake's position as Matsunotsukasa's masterpiece. Normally aged for over a year in the brewery before shipping like our other daiginjo sakes, it still retains the fresh notes of just-brewed sake that strike a contrast with its silky, clear character. We hope this unique sake finds a special place in your heart.
※1 The old Tojo area of Hyogo prefecture is famous as one of the main rice and sake production areas in Japan, and holds a special place in the history of sake making.
