KATANA Junmai Daiginjo

Hamamatsu, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan

From the acclaimed Hananomai Brewery—whose name means “Dance of the Flowers”—comes KATANA Junmai Daiginjo, a sake of balance, grace, and quiet strength. Named after the Japanese sword, it embodies precision and refinement: clean lines, elegant movement, and lasting impact.

This Nama Chozo Daiginjo is pasteurized only once before bottling, preserving its fresh, lively character and aromatic depth. The nose reveals delicate notes of tapioca, warm milk, nougat, and apple pie crust, unfolding into a smooth, dry yet gently fruity palate. Hints of melon rind and parsnip lend complexity to its crisp, polished finish.

Light and refreshing enough to serve as an aperitif, yet structured for pairing with sashimi, grilled white fish, or creamy dishes, KATANA is a versatile choice for restaurants and retailers seeking an elegant Daiginjo that resonates with both connoisseurs and newcomers.
