Kun-shu — aromatic and light

About
Contrary to its aromatic brilliance, this sake is elegant. It harmonizes with the flavors of food in the mouth and gradually fades away. It was brewed with a wide range of dishes in mind. A gentle ginjo aroma, lightness, and a fine, delicate texture come together in good balance. It also pairs wonderfully with bittersweet chocolate and desserts that are not overly sweet.
