Baked apple and pear, honey, wet stone, and sea salt. 50% milled 🍚, oxidative. The two characters on the label mean land of iris.

Eccentric SF retailer said if I found him a sake to drink w his tamale pie, he'd bring it in. This fleshy 50% milled junmai ginjo w notes of stewed rhubarb and dashi-rich umami did the trick

Smells of mushroom and funk. Perfect creamy mouth feel. Papaya, Pine. A little too sweet.
