18L-SHOCHIKUBAI SAKE

Served chilled, this Classic Junmai offers a very fine texture with harmonious aromas and flavors of macadamia nuts, Chai spice (cardamom, nutmeg), vanilla, heavy cream and freshly sliced bread. Served at room temperature, notes of mineral, creme fraiche, sourdough bread, custard, umami and apples emerge. When warmed to around 100°F., the texture and flavor build, bringing out more intense umami while still retaining softness of texture. Savory elements of salted custard, cocoa nib, banana bread, toasted nuts and mineral are evident.
