Hakurakusei
Tokubetsu Junmai
Brewed in the spirit of the “ultimate food sake.”
The aroma emulates the sweetness of melon and banana. The finish is crisp with a refreshing citrus-like acidity.
Flat polished rice helps create the excellent crisp finish.
As this sake is so well balanced, it can be served with a meal or enjoyed on its own.
This sake is tolerant of temperature changes, and can be heated and enjoyed at temperatures above 70℃ (158℉) without any changes to its flavor.
One can enjoy this sake chilled and heated.
