Eiko Fuji Sake
Namazake Junmai Ginjo “Glorious Mt. Fuji”
Region:
Japan
/ Yamagata
This sake is available all year-round. Nothing is wasted, each unconsumed sample bottle gets put to good use by after work research. It is a year-round namazake, meaning that you do not need to wait until the spring to get it. The brewery brews it, stores it at 41 degrees Fahrenheit and ships out as needed.

points of distinction
- This sake is a wonderful representation of the Yamagata ginjo style.
