Sake + Shochu Gumi

This bottle is a Sake Gumi selection! It was featured in July 2022 "New Sakes In Crisis!".

During a 2019 visit to Shimaoka Shuzo, Julie Bath (Partner at Sake Tengoku) explored sakes that had not been available for import previously. This sake was one of them. You may have seen aged sake from this brewery on our shelves (amber in color, delicious on cold days), so we were so excited to see an un-aged sake from the same brewer. With aromas of banana, coconut, and Nilla wafers, this is an ideal sake to have chilled during a hot summer day. Complex flavors of bread and yogurt, finished with crisp acidity pairs well with creamy cheeses (including cheese cake) and olive oil
