This beautiful saké starts out lush and fruity with a weighty mouthfeel and then miraculously morphs itself into a light and dry finish. Aromas of tropical fruits, ripe pineapple and banana are followed by flavors of dry pear and kiwi.
Sushi's best friend. Brewed in Hachinohe where the port is famous for fresh seafood unloaded daily, Murai Family Tanrei Junmai is crafted as the ideal saké for sushi/sashimi. Clean, dry and crisp, this brew allows the flavors of the fish to shine and not be overwhelmed by the flavors of the saké. It's mellow and easy flavors pair cleanly with the nuttiness of rice and its profile cleanses your palate as you enjoy your meal.
Rich, creamy and boldly layered with dynamic flavors of coconut, anise, cream and earthy sweetness. This Nigori takes you back in time, before modernation brought filtration to saké brewers, before dilution reduced a brews strength and before a constant drive to purity removed all the rich depth of saké in favor of light and crispness. This is antique saké and the finest example of its kind.
