Masumi Sanka Junmai Daiginjo Genshu Sake
Sanka, means mountain flowers, is as fresh as an alpine meadow in the spring. Mild fruit aromas and savory flavors make it the perfect daiginjo to pair with food.
Tasting Profile
Aromas of white peach, banana, steamed rice, with hints of sour cream. Bright yet gentle aroma.
There is a mild sweetness pervaded by the umami of rice, and a modicum of acidity and bitterness that provides balance and contrast.
The texture is soft and spreads in the palate along with a slightly milky character that reverberates peacefully in the finish.
