Tasting notes
Nature x Nature is produced by young Toji Mariko Léveillé. It's a Yamahai sake, with no added lactic acid and, above all, a sake in which fermentation is carried out by the yeasts naturally present in the brewery's atmosphere. It is also a Kijoshu, a sake where the water that is usually added during fermentation is replaced by sake to concentrate and preserve the aromas and keep the smoothness. It has a very distinctive, round shape with super fruity and aromatic notes. In the end, it leaves a refreshing sensation with magnificent fruity flavours.
