Katsuyama Den

This elegant Junmai Daiginjo is a masterpiece of the traditional art of sake brewing. Made from extra-fine Yamada Nishiki rice from Hyogo, which has been polished to 35%, it develops elevated, fruity aromas and an impressively complex structure. The crisp acidity and balanced umami make this sake unique. Den is an excellent choice as an accompaniment to tuna sashimi, from fatty to lean, salmon sushi, and even meat dishes which emphasize umami. Den comes from the Japanese word “tradition”.

Classification of Premium Sake

For high quality sake, rice is polished prior to processing with the goal of eliminating the bran and protein which encase the starch held at the center of the rice grain. The smaller the rice polishing ratio (expressed as a percentage of the original rice weight), the finer and more aromatic the sake. Learn more about the different classes of of Premium Sake...
