Yoshi No Gawa Junmai Daiginjo 50 PAIR, 720ml

“50” states the polishing ratio of 50%; and “PAIR” is Yoshinogawa’s proprietary series name, created to highlight easy food pairing.

Brewed by Yoshinogawa in Niigata Prefecture, this Junmai Daiginjo uses Niigata‑grown sake rice (variety not disclosed) polished to 50%. The alcohol is 14%, the SMV is +2, interpreted as slightly dry, and the acidity is 1.2. The sake is produced under Toji Masatsugu Fujino of the Echigo Toji tradition. Recommended serving is chilled or at room temperature.

Tasting Note:

Aromas are light and clean, with gentle melon, white flowers, and a faint rice sweetness. The palate is softly textured at 14% alcohol, showing modest fruit, quiet umami, and a crisp, slightly dry finish. Overall, it is understated, balanced, and easy to pair, in line with the PAIR series concept.
