About
A Junmai Ginjo sake with fruity aromas reminiscent of green apple and strawberry, in which the natural umami of rice blends exquisitely into a complex yet elegantly unified flavor. Smooth on the palate with a pleasing finish, it offers an aftertaste in which acidity, bitterness, and sweetness alternate and interweave. It pairs well with olive oil and carpaccio of fresh fish, which brings out the rice's umami and fragrant aroma even more.
