Narutotai Junmai Daiginjo "Tomoe"

The nose on this Junmai Daiginjo is a wonderful collection of spun sugar, peach, mango, jasmine, blueberry, melon, green apple, honey, and lemonade aromas. Talk about a great example of premium sake, this Daiginjo hits all of the classic points of flavor and feeling. Silky, lush, bright, elegant, integrated acidity, with a long dry finish, this brew performs well chilled in a white wine glass. Look for rock sugar, strawberry, Asian pear, ginger, rice cracker, cucumber, daikon, young peach, steamed rice, and mineral water flavors that drink with elegance and grace. A very nice 'Sake 101' Junmai Daiginjo. WORD: Elegant WINE: Gentle Reds/Mineral Whites BEER: Clean Ales FOODS: Sushi, sashimi, steamed white fish, steamed tai, yakitori, clams, shellfish, and steak.
