Full-bodied junmai sake with rice sweetness.
Balancing the naturally dry finish of junmai sake with a fruity plethora of aromas, the brewing of Hanafubuki rice gives this sake excellent texture and flavours. Featuring strong hints of melon and a subtle nutty aftertaste, use of the region's finest quality rice and mineral water, gives this junmai sake a refined palate with incredible sweetness and depth. Best enjoyed warm (approx. 42 ℃) or served at room temperature (10 - 14 ℃), pair this sake with grilled fish, yakitori and other tender meats to delicately draw out their most succulent flavours.
15% ABV.
