Tasting Notes

Beginning with a gentle sweetness, Nabeshima Yamadabo moves through a subtle bitter contour before its rich umami gradually unfolds. The palate feels balanced and composed, with its Dry-Rich profile expressed through the interplay of a smooth opening, measured dryness, and savory depth. A clean, dry-leaning structure keeps the palate focused, while the finish remains layered rather than heavy. Best served chilled, it pairs naturally with aromatic dishes such as smoked crab, seared prawns, and grilled seasonal vegetables.

Overview

Nabeshima Yamadabo is a Junmai Daiginjo from Fukuchiyo Shuzo in Kashima, Saga Prefecture. Yamadabo, rendered as Yamadaho by the brewery, is the maternal parent of Yamada Nishiki, created by crossing it with Tankan Wataribune. Polished to 40%, this bottling presents the historically important rice through Nabeshima’s commitment to sake with natural body and balance.

Founded in 1923, Fukuchiyo Shuzo introduced the Nabeshima brand in 1998 with the aim of creating a distinctive local sake rooted in Saga. That focus on rice selection, koji, and attentive fermentation continues to shape the brewery’s precise, expressive style.
