เชิงลึก
Dewasansan was bred from a cross of Miyama Nishiki and Hana-fubuki, combining cold tolerance with good brewing characteristics. The variety has a medium-sized shinpaku and tolerates polishing to ginjo-level ratios (50-60%). Sake brewed from Dewasansan tends to have lighter body and more delicate aromatics than Yamada Nishiki-based sake, with a clean, refreshing finish. Yamagata has promoted Dewasansan as the foundation of its prefectural sake identity, and most Yamagata breweries include at least one Dewasansan expression in their lineup.
