The nose on this very popular "new world" Junmai is a clever collection of cherry, kiwi, young melon, raisin, cotton, cucumber, and steamed rice aromas. We haven’t met Master Brewer Miki Fujioka yet, but when we do we will tell her that she makes great sake with such attitude and style that “oxidizes” great! Effervescent, zesty, edgy, chippy, and crisp, this brew drinks like a fresh tingle factory. That’s her style! And to show you, check out the gazillion little bubbles that stick to the sides of your wine glass. And get a taste of those flavors from pear, apple and white crispy grapes, to ginger, kiwi, and steamed rice. This is a “new world” Junmai that is frisky and fun, and a bubbly affair that drinks great after several days of oxidizing in the fridge. Expressive and zesty sake that has a sneaky structure and is solid enough to pair with pizza. WORD: Expressive WINE: Zesty Reds/Crisp Whites BEER: Crisp Ales FOODS: Pizza, comfort foods, izakaya fare, and grilled anything.
