Kokuryu Ryu Daiginjo 50th Anniversary 黑龍 龍 大吟釀 龍 五十周年記念酒 720ml
The Kokuryu Ryu Daiginjo 50th Anniversary offers a rare and refined sake experience. Crafted to commemorate the landmark anniversary of the “Ryu” line, it was brewed in 2020 and aged for five years under low-temperature conditions, resulting in exceptional depth, complexity and maturity.
The presentation is equally luxurious — the bottle features a black Echizen-woven label and is housed in a special black box with gold foiling marking the 50th Anniversary. The rice source is top-grade Yamadanishiki, polished to 40%, delivering both elegance and power.
