Urakasumi Hiyaoroshi Tokubetsu Junmai (BTL 720ml)

A fall treat from one of our favorite breweries! Brewed with Miyagi-grown Sasanishiki, it opens with savory peanut and almond alongside fruity melon and grape. Resting through the summer has mellowed it into something soft and well-balanced, with gentle sweetness and a matured, round umami full of rice flavor.

Hailing from a seaside brewery, it's no surprise this one loves seafood: salt-grilled sanma (Pacific saury), grilled miso-marinated salmon, raw oysters with lemon, sake-steamed clams, or a bubbling seafood hot pot. This sake will take you on a trip to Miyagi now! Serve chilled or slightly warm.

Hiyaoroshi are sakes that have been pasteurized once in the winter, aged through the summer, and released in the fall without a second pasteurization. Hiyaoroshi are as fleeting as leaf peeping season, so get them before they are gone!
