Yaegaki Mu Junmai Daiginjo "Nothingness"

“Mu” has a ripe fruit aroma with elements of melon and grapes. Talk about a soft and clean sake, this Daiginjo lives up to its name “nothingness,” as full flavors such as white grapes and strawberries vanish in a whisper finish. It is surprisingly light for such a generous mouth speed. The acidity play is enveloped in fruit overtones that are well balanced, and unlike most Daiginjos this one gets smoother the more it warms up. WORD: Grapes WINE: Soft reds/light whites BEER: Pale Ales FOODS: Oysters, shell fish, sashimi, oily pasta.
