Rarely do we get blown away by a sake, especially a \"New World\" type of sake that drinks differently than classic Daiginjo sake. But this Abe blew our minds for so many reasons. From the flavor to the actual build of this brew that sports a 13% ABV. Spritzy, light, crisp, tingly, modern, and fresh in feeling this sake excels because of its perfect balance and impeccable finish. The Owner\/Toji (Master brewer) Yuta Abe has created a balanced high acid sake that speaks to those who like both complexity and drinkability. Look for spun honey, concord grape, dark cherry, green apple, lemon lime, pomello, SweetTARTS™, pineapple, kiwi, red raspberry Slurpee™, and mineral water flavors galore. The sake tastes great, but ingesting the build of this brew is really the sweet spot of why this sake is so awesome. There is an elegant shibumi (astringency) and tannin-like dryness that would appeal to wine drinkers. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWORD:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Balanced \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWINE:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Complex Reds\/Mineral Whites \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBEER:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Light Ales \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFOODS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Sushi, sashimi, lobster, crab, shrimp, grilled white fish, caviar, foie gras, ankimo, oysters, champagne fare, and shabu shabu. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fifth Taste","offers":[{"title":"720ml","offer_id":46861746634995,"sku":"DG315-02","price":108.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0268\/7601\/files\/DG315-02_AbeJunmaiDaiginjo45LimitedKoshiKagura_720ml_WM.png?v=1744841044"},{"product_id":"ozeki-junmai-daiginjo-souke-ozakaya","title":"Ozeki Junmai Daiginjo \"Souke Ozakaya\"","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe nose on this sake is a really cool collection of butterscotch, nougat, rice cracker, cashew, caramel, and rich steamed rice aromas.
