Rooted in their philosophy of crafting fresh, clean sake, this release pushes that vision to a new level of refinement and balance. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe goal is simple: capture the beauty of freshly pressed sake at its peak. The aroma is lifted and elegant, with notes of white peach and melon. On the palate, it is silky and seamless, with a smooth, flowing texture that feels effortless. The clarity and refined sweetness come from Yuinoka, Iwate’s premier sake rice. To build depth and structure, the brewery layers in a more pronounced tsuki-haze koji - a style of koji cultivation that promotes deeper penetration into the rice, drawing out richer umami and giving the sake a stronger core. This is paired with Yamada Nishiki koji to further enhance complexity and backbone. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe result is a sake that balances precision with depth; bright yet grounded. Fine acidity and layered umami carry through to a long, clean, polished finish. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSize 720ml \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAlcohol 15% \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eRice 80% YUINOKA , 20% YAMADA NISHIKI\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fifth Taste","offers":[{"title":"720ml","offer_id":49983111495923,"sku":"DG367-02","price":400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0268\/7601\/files\/DG367-02_AkabuYuinokaRedSamurai_720ml_WM.png?v=1785975630","url":"https:\/\/www.truesake.com\/products\/akabu-red-samurai","provider":"True Sake","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
