About

A clean, crisp sake that pairs well with a wide range of dishes, from Italian antipasti to karaage (Japanese fried chicken). As a seasonal release, the brewery typically offers a "nakagumi namazake" (unpasteurized sake from the middle portion of pressing) in spring, and a "nakagumi hiire" (pasteurized) version in autumn.
