Regular price $219.99

Brewed by Matsui Shuzo (松井酒造), one of Kyoto’s oldest breweries (est. 1726), Kagura “White” Junmai Daiginjo (神蔵 白) embodies the brand’s philosophy of purity through craftsmanship. “Kagura” means Divine Music — symbolising serenity and rhythm — and the White label expresses clarity, balance, and refinement.

Crafted from premium Yamada Nishiki rice polished to 45%, this sake offers graceful aromas of pear, lychee, and jasmine, followed by a silky palate with gentle sweetness and lingering umami. Brewed with Kyoto’s famously soft water, it achieves a light yet expressive profile — elegant, clean, and soothing.
