Tasting notes

Perfect pairings

We recommend drinking it on the rocks or diluting it with sparkling water. How about a new summer saké?

Tasting notes

Colour: cloudy
Palate: mellow, fresh

Description

The result is a slightly sparkling sake with aromas of green apple and pleasantly sweet and tangy flavours, nicely supported by its cloudy appearance.

This sake is also of the genshu type. Genshu literally means "cask strength" and refers to sake that has not been diluted. No distilled water is added to lower the alcohol content.

This is therefore a low-alcohol, slightly cloudy sake made with white koji. You can sense the sweetness and sourness in the dancing cloudiness. Using a new approach, Tsuji Honten has brewed a new "summer-style sake" with a light taste. 

A refreshing sake to drink in hot weather, with a low alcohol content of 13%, but with good flavour and good acidity.
