A Unique Sake with a Bold Concept

As the third creation in the prestigious Tatenokawa Muga series, the Tatenokawa Muga Red Bottle Junmai Daiginjo stands as a shining example of innovation and quality. The Muga series is celebrated for its commitment to capturing freshness in every sip, embodying six defining principles:

  1. No Filtration: Preserving the sake in its purest form as collected.

  2. No Added Water: Delivering a rich, umami-packed flavor through its undiluted nature.

  3. No Heating: Offering the vibrant taste of fresh, unpasteurized sake.

  4. No Added Carbonation: Retaining the natural effervescence from fermentation.

  5. No Delay in Bottling: Bottled on the same day as the moromi pressing, when the sake is separated from the lees.

  6. No Hesitation: Reflecting an unrelenting pursuit of fresh and flavorful sake.

With these principles, the Tatenokawa Muga series sets itself apart as a beacon of craftsmanship in the sake world.

The Elegance of Yuki-Megami

At the heart of Tatenokawa Muga’s refined flavor is “Yuki-Megami” (Snow Goddess) rice, a masterpiece of agricultural innovation from Yamagata Prefecture. This premium rice variety, crafted specifically for junmai daiginjo and daiginjo sake, offers an exceptional foundation for brewing. Its larger grains, lower crude protein content, and superior ability to be polished to perfection result in a sake that is both delicate and exquisitely elegant. Compared to the well-known “Dewa-Sansan” rice, Yuki-Megami stands out as a game-changer in the world of sake.

A Symphony of Aroma and Flavor

Tatenokawa Muga Red Bottle Junmai Daiginjo delights the senses with its exquisite aroma and taste profile:

  • Aroma: Subtle hints of kompeito sugar, white grapes, and rice powder invite the drinker into an aromatic journey.

  • Taste: The sake unfolds with a vibrant blend of juicy acidity and the sweetness of white grapes. Its crisp finish leaves a refreshing impression, paired with a light and elegant mouthfeel.
