“Suijin” means water god and this sake is powerfully dry and smooth, like a water dragon coursing through a river. Made with locally sourced rice grown in Iwate, it’s fermented to the max resulting in a slightly higher alcohol level. The soft texture is enhanced when warmed, and it’s full of refreshing dryness when chilled. Spend enough time with it and you’ll discover some hidden fruity notes, too.

300ml bottle from Beverley Hills Bottleshop. Clear pale yellow colour, no head and aroma of rice, melon, booze. Taste is sweetish, rice, caramel hint, alittle liquorice, with drying boozy notes. Smooth medium bodied, low carbonation, clean dry warming boozy finish. Nicely drinkable.
