About

Sake Mirai, the rice variety used here, gives the sake a sense of the future of sake, as its name suggests. It has a rich, fruity aroma, and the finish after sipping is clean, with umami that is easy to appreciate. Served chilled, it shows the crisp character typical of Sharaku's pasteurization, and it is a food sake that pairs well with a wide range of dishes.
