Taruzake is sake aged in cedar barrels, which imparts minty, earthy notes to the final brew. This particular sake was a yamahai junmai made with Omachi rice. The result is an out-of-this-world sake – tart and lactic from the yamahai, and woodsy from the cedar casks. The flavors were wild, and we love it at room temperature.

Read about the event we had with the brewery, where we shared this taruzake with guests.
