Product Information

Sometimes more can be achieved with less. It seems to be the case with Sakari no. 11: by polishing off half of the rice grain, the true and rich taste of rice can come through.

Futsu-shu, which is barely polished, is best thought of as table sake. It accounts for the bulk of sake sold in Japan, and though you'll find some paint stripper, there are many excellent everyday drinkers if you look hard enough. In recent years, sake has rapidly gained mainstream traction at bars, restaurants, and grocery stores stateside. The traditional Japanese rice wine comes in variations that boast a wide assortment of textures and flavor profiles, but the one you should absolutely be reaching for as the weather heats up is yuzu sake. Some are fruity, some are dry. Some are best enjoyed hot, some cold. Every food and every moment have their right sake.

You will be surprised by how fruity Sakari no.13 can taste. While - of course - it contains no fruit, the fermentation process lets it develop all kinds of natural aromas. A joy for your palate. The Jury of the prestigious International Wine and Spirit Competition (IWSC) in London has awarded a GOLD medal in late July 2019. Precisely the incomparable blend of complex yuzu-citrus aromas and soft premium Sake that turns our Yuzu into the perfect drink for the summer has also convinced the judges: Rich, bright citrus bursts forth from the glass: unmistakable yuzu with a gentle floral aroma; a great combination of sweetness and tartness. A beautiful product that captures the flavour of yuzu perfectly. I’m not immune either, especially since my favourite animal seems to thoroughly enjoy soaking in a yuzu-infused hot spring. Just look at the contented faces of these capybaras in the Izu Shaboten Zoo, as they lie down among the floating citrus. The Umenoyado was the clear winner of the comparative taste test, and The Wife proceeded to buy another three bottles. Because, yuzu addict.

The Hakutsuru Marugotoshibori Nigori Yuzushu from Hyogo prefecture was the next to arrive… Kozaemon Yuzu Junmai Sake Really, it's the wrong name: the Japanese character for 'sake' just means 'alcohol', "but at some point it got bastardised," says Cheong-Tong. "It should really be called 'nihonshu': 'nihon' meaning Japan, 'shu' is the alcohol of Japan." We still had to finish the remainder of the other two bottles, and we’ve been drinking them individually over the past few days. Interestingly, on their own, they were actually quite nice. For me, sake is a better tool of communication than any social network. More importantly, it does something social networks cannot: it connects me to nature. ” Yuzushu is a traditional Japanese liqueur made by steeping yuzu, a citrus fruit native to East Asia, in sake or shochu and sweetening it with sugar.
