Shirataki Sake Brewery
Jozen Pink
From the sake bottle
This perfectly balanced Junmai Ginjo is full of bright stone fruit like peach, nectarine and juicy cherry with a clean mineral finish that is reminiscent of melting snow.
Sake Review
Our Tasting Notes
Floral on the nose, savory at heart. Pour it next to grilled beef.
What hit first was...
A pleasant bloom in the air, sweet like a cherry blossom.
This belongs on a table with...
Steak or hamburgers. There is something about a bit of grilled beef that suits the slight sweetness and minerality of the sake.
The kind of evening this was made for...
A cookout with friends. This sake turns out to be a great American barbecue sake, we just need to invent o-choko koozies.
The biggest surprise was...
That a sake this floral on the nose ends up belonging next to a grill.
Somewhere between the first sip and the last...
The umami hit of savory red pepper gives way to dark red cherry. The tongue turns a bit dry and a little salty, but it leaves with a very clean aftertaste, almost like a ghost.
