The golden ratio of bursting freshness and "drinkability" achieved through a single pasteurization.

Among the "ricula" series, this is a very well-balanced sake, finished with a single pasteurization to lock in its fresh flavor. While it has the fresh fruitiness of unpasteurized sake, the pasteurization provides stability, resulting in an astonishingly smooth mouthfeel. The light aroma reminiscent of lychee and the gentle sweetness of rice harmonize pleasantly, with a refreshing acidity bringing a smart finish to the whole.

It has an approachable quality that we can confidently recommend even to those who are not accustomed to drinking sake. This is a bottle we hope you'll enjoy casually with a holiday lunch or light appetizers.
