Akabu Junmai

Rate this sake
🍶
Description

Brewed in Iwate with Gin Ginga rice polished to sixty percent, this Junmai offers a gentle nose of peach, grapefruit, and steamed rice. The palate stays light and silky, carrying citrus and soft fruit notes into a clean, well balanced finish. Bright acidity and a touch of umami make it an easy match for grilled fish and lightly seasoned dishes.
