Signature of the Samurai clan. 

A style of sake with a fruity aroma and rich taste evoking Japanese fine muskmelon, along with umami and its accompanying sweetness, make for a very drinkable sake. While ideal for those new to sake, the rich flavour also makes it well suited as an aperitif as well as just the right drink for pairing with rich dishes. Serve very well chilled.

The name Lei comes from the wagtail, a sacred creature in Japanese mythology and messenger of the gods. The official signature of Date Masamune, founder of the Sendai Domain, happens to resemble the long flowing tail of this bird.
