JUYONDAI KURONAWA DAIGINJO 十四代 黒縄 大吟醸720mL

Brewed by Takagi Shuzo (高木酒造) in Yamagata Prefecture, Juyondai Kuronawa Daiginjo (十四代 黒縄 大吟醸) stands among the most coveted sakes in Japan. “Kuronawa,” meaning Black Rope, symbolises elegance, strength, and purity — a tribute to Takagi Shuzo’s meticulous craftsmanship and centuries-old brewing heritage.

This limited-release Daiginjo is crafted with the finest Yamada Nishiki rice polished down to 35%, brewed with exceptionally soft Yamagata water and Takagi’s proprietary yeast. The result is a luxurious sake with expressive aromas of white peach, melon, and lychee, a silky mouthfeel, and a deep yet delicate finish that lingers with umami and grace.
