Onnajoshu Dry Junmai sake

About

Thanks to the characteristics of the raw rice, this is a very dry sake that still carries a gentle hint of sweetness, even at this level of dryness. It preserves the umami of the rice while leaving the palate clean, a rich dry style (umakara type). The flavor is lightly tightened and cohesive. A little sweetness can be sensed, the fine acidity and dryness are well balanced, and the umami lingers finely and long. It pairs best with rice dishes such as sushi, and with sweet hotpot dishes or oden. Served cold it can taste overly sharp, so warming it from chilled to warm (hiya to kan) is recommended, which lets the aroma and umami swell.
