Takara Sake USA Sho Chiku Bai Classic Junmai Sake NV 1.5L

Producer Notes

With a savory complex taste, it is the best sake for food-pairing sake and great served both chilled or warmed. Served chilled this Classic Junmai Sake offers a very fine texture with harmonious aromas and flavors of macadamia nuts, Chai spice (cardamom, nutmeg), vanilla, heavy cream, and freshly sliced bread. Served at room temperature, notes of mineral, creme fraiche, sourdough bread, custard, umami, and apples emerge. When warmed to around 100º F., the texture and flavor build, bringing out more intense umami while still retaining softness of texture. Savory elements of salted custard, cocoa nib, banana bread, toasted nuts, and mineral are evident. Gluten Free, Sulfite Free, Certified Kosher.
