Product Description
A summer-limited unfiltered nama sake with a refreshingly smooth profile!
This seasonal release from Naohiko Noguchi, often referred to as the "God of Sake Brewing," is an unfiltered nama sake available only during the summer months. Capturing the vibrant freshness of freshly pressed sake, it offers the lively character that only nama sake can deliver.
Delicate fruity aromas reminiscent of banana and pear gently unfold, while a light umami richness is balanced by a soft, rounded acidity. Notes of sweet melon spread across the palate, creating the full-bodied depth characteristic of unfiltered nama sake. The finish is clean and dry, providing a crisp and refreshing drinking experience without lingering sweetness.
A subtle hint of bitterness adds complexity and depth to the flavour, making it an excellent match for early summer ingredients, particularly sweetfish (ayu). Serve well chilled in a glass sake vessel to fully appreciate its refreshing character and delicate aromatic nuances.
