Akashi Tai Honjozo Genshu Tokubetsu Sake 300ml Japan

The Akashi Tai Sake Brewery, named after sea bream caught near the port city of Akashi in south-west Japan, was founded in 1917 and has been producing superb sake in a range of styles ever since. Each Sake is hand-crafted in small batches using rice grown in the local Hyogo province. The Tokubetsu Honjozo Genshu features rice polished to 60% of the grain remaining. Fuller in body and with a higher alcohol content, it offers pink grapefruit, beeswax and white floral undertones on the nose. A creamy, rich palate with tropical fruit flavours is balanced by a subtle umami note. This sake can be enjoyed on the rocks or in cocktail making, and can be heated up to 45C if you prefer your sake warm.
