Sake

Using only the finest rice, and Nada's famed natural spring water "Miyamizu", Junmai Ginjo has been brewed with meticulous care and traditional method. This flowery fragrant Sake with silky, well-balanced smoothness can be enjoyed chilled or at room temperature. Matches dishes with a slightly salty taste or a slightly soy-sauce taste.

It's totally natural, using OCIA certified rice harvested from the Sacramento Valley with absolutely no preservatives, no alcohol, and no sulfites added. It is brewed under the direction of Takara's master brewer combining the most traditional methods with modern technology to arrive at the Ginjo grade.

The nose on this brew milled to 60% is filled with mango, rice, vanilla, and Jolly Rancher green apple aromas. A very tight and compact sake that drinks crisp and bright.

Made using the highly sought Yamadanishiki rice - milled until only 38% of the grain remains - grown in a district of Hyogo. Gorgeous melon, citrus, and sage aromatics fill the room. Bitter orange, minerality, and fresh cut grass are abundant on the long lasting finish.

It's called "Excellent" for a reason—because it is! Let's not beat around the bush: this is one of the best value sakes out there. It's the sake that everyone will like: Goldilocks, Papa, Mama, AND Baby bear (Just to be clear, Baby in sake experience, not age!)

Character: Delicate, dry and silky smooth.
Texture: Soft and smooth.
Aroma: Strong ginjo aroma.

Taking its name from its location in Shiraiwa, this region is renowned for its pristine snowmelt water. This assemblage-style junmai daiginjo is made by former Chef de Cave at Dom Pérignon Richard Geoffroy. A blend of no less than 20 different sakes, including reserves from previous years, this rich and complex sake will age gracefully over the next decade. Pair with raw scallops in yuzu vinaigrette.
