The nose on this seasonally released unpasteurized sake made with a consumption rice is a wonderful collection of cherry, raisin, cantaloupe, peach, lemon lime, and brandy aromas. Sasanishiki rice is rich, and so too is this Nama that drinks lush, round, smooth, velvety, and with a little tingle of freshness. It’s a full-bodied brew that has a nice weight to it and leaves long legs on the glass. Look for cherry, lime, peach, cooked pear, rose water, Jolly Rancher, and herbal flavors with a mineral finish. There is so much depth in this brew that has a 17.5% ABV and screams of rich raw sake at its freshest best! WORD: Rich WINE: Beefy Reds/Fat Whites BEER: Stouts FOODS: International spice, hot pots, tacos, pizza, fatty sashimi and sushi, steamed crab, and oysters. (2023)

The nose on this unpasteurized seasonally released brew is a fun collection of berry, purple plum, mineral, corn, hay, cherry, and steamed rice aromas. Yes! An excellent Shiboritate that is calm, controlled, rich, and tasty from one of our favorite brewers. This is NOT a wacky and spastic nama that is all edges and brash, rather it is balanced and very flavorful. Smooth, ripe, clean, crisp with a little tingle, the strength of this sake rests in its rich confidence. Look for cherry, berry, plum, apple, pear, mango, Asian pear, and sweet rice flavors that travel on zesty light flow that is not too aggressive. Velvety with deep cooked fruit tones, this brew is all about the feeling and lovely flavors. WORD: Rich WINE: Deep Reds/Fat Whites BEER: Belgian Ales FOODS: Seafood, sushi, rich fare, meats, grilled fare, oysters. (2022)
