KID Junmai-Daiginjo
Yamada Nishiki, gentle fruit aroma and a soft, clear finish.
A regular KID Daiginjo expression
This is the standard KID Junmai-Daiginjo made from 100% Yamada Nishiki polished to 50%. It is distinct from the 40% and 45% variants, and the page keeps its focus on this regular pink-label bottling.
How it tastes
Gentle fruit aroma and a soft, smooth texture. The finish is clear and balanced rather than weighty.
A quiet harmony between aroma and texture defines this sake.
Serve chilled in a white-wine glass.
From Wakayama to international acclaim
Founded in 1928 in Kainan, Wakayama, Heiwa Shuzo uses soft water from the Koyasan area to shape the refined texture of its sake.
At IWC 2019, Heiwa Shuzo won four Gold, three Silver and two Bronze medals and was named Sake Brewer of the Year. It retained the title in 2020, when Muryozan Junmai-Ginjo was also crowned Champion Sake. The brewery returned to the award’s shortlist in both 2025 and 2026.
Launched in 2008, KID brings an open, food-ready expression to the table, while Muryozan is a more focused premium line rooted in the brewery’s history. Together, they range from lightness and ease to quiet depth.
