Suzaku is a ginjo-style junmai sake, using more polished rice than for regular junmai. The more polished rice, fermented slowly at a lower temperature, gives this sake fruity aromas and an elegance like its namesake. “Suzaku” is the elegant mythical phoenix-like bird who is said to be the noble guardian of the south
