This Junmai Kasumi Sake, inspired by a rain-kissed orchard, boasts a delightful peach hue that mirrors the luster of ripe fruit. Its juicy, weighty sweetness recalls the essence of freshly squeezed fruit juice, thanks to the gentle fermentation process fueled by natural red yeast. This results in a unique Junmai sake that strikes a perfect balance between sweetness and tartness.
Surprisingly, its alcohol content is a modest “8 degrees,” half that of regular sake. To fully appreciate its profile, serve this exceptional sake chilled in a wine glass. For a distinctive twist, try it with a splash of soda or a touch of water, elevating the overall experience.
