About

This sake pairs the tartness of white koji (shirokoji) with a gentle finish, aiming for a fresh yet deep body with a light richness. Taking the yeast and koji into account, we also aim for distinct, well-defined temperature control during moromi (fermentation mash) fermentation. The yeast and white koji we use are characterized by citrus flavors and aromas. We work to ensure thorough fermentation while letting the sweetness and umami blend with the acidity of the white koji. On hot days, it is also recommended over crushed ice or on the rocks. Enjoy it in whatever style you like, for example alongside a caprese salad: cherry tomatoes sliced into rounds, mixed with mozzarella and basil, seasoned with salt and olive oil, and finished with lemon juice to taste.
