Three words that describe this sake are...
Lush. Tropical. Arresting.
What hit me first was...
The mouthfeel. Smooth, full, and quite stunning.
Close your eyes and breathe it in, you'll find...
A lively tropical playground with shifting aromas found in a Pacific island breeze.
It tastes like the color...
Warm gold of a Hawaiian sunrise.
This belongs on a table with...
Something equally lush. Fresh seafood with noodles, Thai mango salad, anything that doesn't compete but keeps up.
