360ml Bottle Size (separate listing for 720ml Bottle Size)
Ginjo-like aromas of peach, stone-fruit and citrus
Soft flavours of rice and stone fruit with a gentle fizz. This sake is pasteurised after a secondary in-bottle fermentation similar to traditional methods employed in making Champagne. This method results in a fine perlage and some sediment remaining in the bottle giving a cloudy appearance. Medium dry in style and drink as an alternative to Champagne.
Food matches – oysters and seafood platter, calamari and prawns. Poached chicken and fish. Rice pudding and creamy desserts.
Serve chilled in tulip-shaped glass to capture aroma and appreciate the bubble. Care required on opening the bottle. After gentle opening ensure the sediment at the base is gently circulated in the bottle.
Store in a cool, dark place. After opening keep refrigerated.
