Hakutsuru Superior Junmai Ginjo Sake 720ml

Hakutsuru Superior Junmai Ginjo is a gentle and incredibly drinkable sake. Its nose is an aromatic concoction of melon, grape, and sweet rice. Each sip is balanced with a rounded-out dry finish. The meticulous care used during brewing is reflected in the light complexity of the brew. Hakutsuru is charming, whether served cold or room temperature and amiable to everyone.

Talk about a gentle and yet elegant sake that is incredibly drinkable. The nose on the brew is a whispered collection of cantaloupe, white grape, sweet rice, raisin, and spring water elements. Clean, smooth with a hint of fruit tones this brew drinks very even with a dry round finish. Look for layers of nuanced flavors such as melon and dried pear all on a gentle flow that feels good in the mouth. A larger glass makes this brew all the more smooth, and the lower alcohol content may appeal to those looking for a lighter sake experience.
