Bar Goto Junmai Daiginjo Sake (BTL 720ml)
This is a limited-release collaboration between Koimari Shuzo and Kenta Goto of Bar Goto in New York City. We're proud to be the first sake seller in California to carry it, thanks to our long friendship with Kenta, who's even done a bar pop-up with us at Umami Mart.
Tropical notes of pineapple and mango collide with a juicy, full texture, balanced acidity, and a clean finish. Kenta serves this sake chilled, and we love it that way too neat, or shaken into a cocktail. Pair it with blue cheese, prosciutto, or anything spicy and salty.
Features:
- Brewed in Saga, Japan by Koimari Shuzo

Sake Highball:
We're introducing this sake alongside a cocktail from Kenta's book, The Goto Bartender's Guide (with Noah Rothbaum) — simple enough for anyone to make, as long as they're willing to measure it.
- Bar Goto Sake — 1.75 oz
- Vodka (winter wheat or rice) — 2 tsp
- Club soda — 3.25 oz
Keep the sake and club soda chilled before building — otherwise the ice melts too fast and throws off the balance.
