This is a quite delicate representation of a Tokubetsu Junmai.
Good minerality, and clean acidity makes this sake very food
friendly ! Aromas and flavors of watermelon, banana peel, and
pearskins. The finish is long, and shows a silky riverstone mineraly
finish.
Try this sake with tuna.

Sommelier comment
This sake is a real treat, for it is a good lesson in contradiction.
The lesson is... that it is complex in its simplicity; it is sweet yet dry,
it's chewy but soft, and it seems a bit dull even though it is vast in flavor.
The nose shows marshmallowy fruit, and yet the granular fragrance
of the rice adds a welcome nuance. This sake is round and easy to drink
for the novice, and yet interesting enough for even the seasoned sake lover.

Sommelier comment
This bone-dry masculine Junmai with a pungent aroma of
miso,
gingko nut
and rice, is the perfect choice for steamy-hot, savory
winter dishes. The
big bold rice and mineral flavors, accented by
the mild creamy acidity
like yogurt, cuts through strongly seasoned,
rich-textured foods. Letting
it breathe and swirling the cup will soften
up this compacted sake and
will bring out the best of its richness.
When heated, its dryness is enhanced
with hints of steamed red beans
and roasted chestnut. Serve at room temperature,
or warm to hot.
Food pairing: Strongly seasoned dishes, etc.
(e.g.
Miso-broiled eel, vegetables in sweet
miso sauce, sake lee soup,
shabu shabu, etc.)

Sommelier comment
This light golden color Junmai is supple and refreshing with a
modest nose
of fresh green apple. Well-structured with optimum
bitterness and acidity,
its umami and earthiness compliment
a variety of zesty dishes as the tart,
toasty stewed-apple flavor
spreads over and cleans the palette. Serve at
room temperature,
or gently warmed.
Food pairing:
Heavily seasoned cooked food, dishes with heavy sauces, grilled meats,
etc.
(E.g. Hiroshima style pancake with sauce, soba with tempura topping,
robata meats, steak with BBQ sauce, etc.)
