Since 2020, Aoki-Shuzou has released special edition of Yukiotoko "Sakeyell" and this is a third edition. Aoki-Shuzou reserves prime part of sake to make premium range and the Sakeyell III is a blend of those reserves from the snow-cellar. Specification such as rice varietal, rice polishing rate etc. are secrets. Rich, round, and complex on the palate(atypical for Yukiotoko), but you can find a signature of Yukiotoko = cool dry in the finish.
|
