Tasting and Pairing
Gorgeous aroma reminiscent of pineapple and steamed rice. Moist, gentle sweetness that spreads on the palate, while the moderate acidity gives the entire bottle a pleasantly taut feel before fading away.
Food Pairing
It has a slight astringency when opened, and can be served with tempura, white fish fritters, and scallop terrine.
When it becomes round after being opened, it can be served with firefly squid with vinegar miso paste, crab miso, pasta with dried mullet roe, and barbecued chicken.

The Brewery
This talented brewery, guided by the motto “Sake brewing is a combination of science, taste, and passion!”, excels in both scientific and traditional approaches. Over a decade ago, the brothers took over brewing and abolished the “Toji” system. Their lineup ranges from aromatic modern sake to rich Yamahai-style sake. They've won gold medals at the National New Sake Competition and at the Fukuoka National Taxation Bureau's prestigious sake competition. The brewery is a leading player among Fukuoka's emerging sake producers.
