Hakutsuru Superior Junmai Ginjo Sake - 300 ml
Hakutsuru Superior Junmai Ginjo is a premium Japanese sake produced in the Nada district of Kobe, within the Hyogo prefecture. It is crafted by Hakutsuru Sake Brewing Co. Ltd., a historic brewery founded in 1743 that has grown to become one of Japan's leading sake producers. The brewery utilizes traditional methods alongside modern technology, sourcing natural spring water from Mt. Rokko to create its signature refined profile.
Description
This sake is characterized by its flowery and elegant sensory profile, presented in a distinctive aqua blue frosted bottle. It features a delicate aroma of ripe strawberry and melon, complemented by notes of blueberry and sweet rice. On the palate, it is smooth, well balanced, and crisp, offering flavours of pear and cantaloupe with a hint of nutty rice. The body is light and dry, leading to a refined and rounded finish. It has an alcohol by volume of 14.5% and is best served chilled or at room temperature.
Food Pairing
The light and floral nature of Hakutsuru Superior Junmai Ginjo makes it an excellent companion for delicate seafood such as sashimi, steamed clams, and light fish like scallop or crab. It also pairs gracefully with savory vegetable dishes, including edamame, tempura, and sauteed vegetables. Beyond traditional Japanese fare, it complements Western options like fresh goat cheese, salads with fruit, or simple roasted nuts. For a unique combination, try serving it with grilled king oyster mushrooms to match its balanced acidity.
