Northern Alps Junmai Sake 720ml Alc.15%

The special light aroma and smooth rich taste of Junmai sake (pure rice sake) are particularly exquisite, like a symphony of flavors echoing inside your mouth. This delicious Junmai sake was carefully brewed using rice from ideal climate conditions. Its gentle aroma conjures up images of actual plants. Grains such as rice ears, wheat and buckwheat are mixed with herbs such as yomogi, apple mint, and bay leaves along with the essence of ferns, birch and cherry trees to create an ambience akin to a whole forest of aromas and flavors. The taste is crisp and fresh, light enough to gently drift into the body, characterized by a mild sensation that vanishes rather than melts inside your mouth. It is a wonderful sake with a precisely measured bite coupled with delicate and refreshing tartness for a perfect balance of flavors.
