HAKUTSURU SAKE GOLD UKIYO E JUNMAI DAI GINJO JAPAN 720ML

Like Ukiyo-e, a traditional Japanese art form, making beautiful sake takes time, skill and creativity. Making an exquisite sake such as this aromatic and enticing Daiginjo is both a form of mastery and art.

Sparkling pronounced aroma of strawberries, raspberries and a fresh expression. A sensation on the palate filled with flavors of melon, banana, tangerine with a soft and round mouthfeel and a lingering finish.

We recommend serving this sake chilled or at room temperature. It lies in the middle of the scale between sweet and dry and has a light expression. The delicate Daiginjo notes emerge best at 8-12 degrees.

Try this sake with fried fish dishes, tempura vegetables or as Hakutsurus’ own brewmaster recommends; for fried chicken or honey-glazed ham!

Ukiyo-e (ooh-kee-yoh-eh) is a Japanese woodblock print or painting of famous kabuki actors, beautiful women, travel landscapes, and city life from the Edo period. Ukiyo-e is important in expressing the sensual qualities of Japanese culture from the 17th to the 19th century.
