Saku-Saku Karakuchi Okunomatsu is an easy-to-drink Honjozo with aromas of exotic fruit, roasted grain and rice flour on the nose. On the palate, the umami character stands out, complemented by refined dry notes that also linger in the finish. Karakuchi means “dry” in Japanese and is often used to describe sake with a distinctly dry flavour profile.
This sake pairs especially well with spicy Asian dishes, offering a pleasant counterbalance.
It can be enjoyed both chilled and gently warmed.
