This sake stole the show over the summer. A low polish junmai with peachy-fruity aroma & a soft supple texture.

Harada 80 “Junmai”

Junmai / Hatsumomiji Shuzo, Yamaguchi

The experience: This sake wears a lot of hats. Over the summer it was tasty chilled. When opened it has a little zippiness and bright acidity that cut through the hot summer. But now.. now we’re thinking its a room temp/warm sake contender. We love a versatile sake! It stands tall on its own but would be great paired with a cheese board or even spicy asian food.

Process: Sokujo (fast brew!) ABV: 16%
