“This was perfect with some spicy ramen! It had surprising layers of flavor and pairing it with food really brought those out. A nice balance between rice notes and some fruity sweetness. Delish!”
“I paired this 24 month 55% Ginjo koshu on a recent sake night with sake steamed scallops and clams and sautéed pancetta (steaming with a different sake). Our 6 guests thought this Junmai’s Gohyakumangoku riceiness, and especially its pinkness, served in a clean clam shell, made a great pairing, although I believe almost all premium sake pairs with almost anything. There was very little left at the end of the evening, as was true of the other five bottles and food courses. I finished it tonight. YouTube Chef’s Apprentice”
“This was the recommended sake from the search survey. It’s definitely my favorite so far, the perfect balance of fruitiness without being cloyingly sweet! Going to reorder soon!”
“I really like the floral undertones and moderate sweetness of this sake! I’d put this one on par with an Alsatian Gewurtztraminer which also pairs well with spicy Asian cuisine. This is definitely going on my reorder wishlist.”
“Perfect with anything spicy. This sake is best paired with food, as opposed to drinking on its own. The stone fruit notes are very evident in its scent, but the clean, snowy, mineral elements truly shine when consumed chilled. It’s a really great sake for meal-pairing.”
