Talk about a fun sake! This brew is round, smooth, and semisweet with an upfront fruit explosion followed by a great quick finish. How did they do that? So much flavor, but still so balanced and juicy. Look for layers of fruitiness like pear, mango, berries, and a superb grapefruit tickle. But also keep an eye out for powder sugar and pear hard candy with a very gentle nougat appearance as the fluid warms in the glass. Very silky and slippery and just a fun fruit party in the glass, and it’s just rice and water.\u003cstrong\u003e WORD:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fruity \u003cstrong\u003eWINE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fruity seasonal reds\/fruity whites\u003cstrong\u003e BEER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sweet ales \u003cstrong\u003eFOODS:\u003c\/strong\u003e Seafood, shellfish, oysters, sashimi, cold crab.","brand":"NA FOOD","offers":[{"title":"720ml","offer_id":5986084061216,"sku":"DG134-02","price":103.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0268\/7601\/products\/DG134-02_StellaJunmaiDaiginjoShizukuMurokaGenshu_720ml_1365x2048_WM.jpg?v=1603764704"},{"product_id":"kiuchi-kikusakari-zen-koji","title":"Kiuchi Kikusakari \"Zen Koji\"","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe nose on this specially crafted sake is a massive collection of honey, sweet nuts, mint, soy sauce, grapefruit, marmalade, cured meats, raisin, and sweet rice aromas.

This is another expression of sake that is totally rich, smooth, round, chewy, expressive, viscous, and eye opening with dexterity and complexity galore. Look for lots of honey, maple syrup, candied nuts, raisin, fig, burnt vanilla, sweet potato, and Port-like flavors that drink very much like a Sherry or a Port, which means good with desserts and cigars.

If you like it woody, you’ll love this very upfront cedar brew that explodes with spicy and woody flavors that jump at your palate, on a very smooth semi-thick flow that has a dry woody finish. In my notes I wrote, \"It tastes like a ski lodge.\" As the fluid warms, the nuances of dry citrus and white pepper disappear, and cedar is the word. A great food pairing brew that does well in several glass sizes and temperatures.
