In 1966, the beautiful orange rose 'Princess Michiko' was presented from the United Kingdom to Her Majesty Empress Emerita Michiko during her years as Crown Princess.
This Sake is meticulously brewed using the unique Rose Yeast PM-1, a special yeast strain isolated by Tokyo University of Agriculture from the blossoms of this historic rose.
Delicately fragrant with a refined floral bouquet and a crystal-clear, elegant sweetness, this Sake offers a truly distinctive tasting experience.
Serve well chilled in a wine glass for the best enjoyment.
