Profile & Story
Yamagata Masamune is the flagship brand of Mitobe Sake Brewery, a small, family-run producer founded in 1898 in Tendo, Yamagata Prefecture, and now led by fifth-generation owner and master brewer Tomonobu Mitobe. This limited, autumn-release bottling is brewed exclusively with Sake Mirai -- a rare, prized sake rice developed by Takagi Shuzo, the brewery behind the legendary "Juyondai" -- milled to 50% in a Junmai Ginjo style.
Tasting Notes
Vivid, tropical fruit aromas lead into a juicy palate where balanced sweetness meets refined acidity, before giving way to Yamagata Masamune's signature crisp, clean finish.
Pairing Recommendation
Enjoyable on its own as a sipping sake, and equally at home at the table with seasonal autumn dishes.
