The rice used is 100% "Yamada Nishiki," grown in the same water vein as the brewing water. This "domaine" approach ensures high rice quality and optimal conditions for sake brewing.
Alcohol Content:
The alcohol content of Classic Muku is approximately 14-15%, achieving a balance between drinkability and a robust flavor.

Aroma:
Classic Muku features a sweet and sour aroma of muscat grapes, green apples, and peaches, with hints of fresh herbs. This provides a gentle yet rich fruity nuance.
