Daimon 45 Junmai Daiginjo (300 ml)

Daimon 45 Junmai Daiginjo is an elegant sake crafted by Daimon Brewery (大門酒造), a historic sake producer established in 1826 in Osaka Prefecture. The brewery is located near the Ikoma mountain range, where pure natural water and traditional brewing knowledge have shaped its sake for nearly two centuries.

The number “45” refers to the rice polishing ratio (Seimai Buai 精米歩合), meaning the rice used for brewing has been polished down until only 45% of the grain remains. Removing the outer layers of the rice helps produce a cleaner, more aromatic sake with greater finesse.

For this Junmai Daiginjo, carefully selected sake rice is fermented slowly at low temperatures, allowing delicate aromas and refined textures to develop. The result is a sake that balances fruity elegance with gentle rice sweetness, showcasing the precision and craftsmanship typical of premium Daiginjo styles.

Compared with ultra-polished versions such as the 35% expression, the 45% polishing ratio often retains slightly more body and character, giving the sake a richer mouthfeel while maintaining the refined aromatic profile expected from Junmai Daiginjo.
