With a nose of rose petals and raisins, this nigori has a smooth texture and a silky finish of vanilla, coconut and cream. The viscosity is a bit thin, but the abundance of rice flavorings makes for a clean finish. This nigori is semi-sweet, thin and slippery.

This medium-dry junmai ginjo won silver in the 2017 World Sake Challenge. Not only a big win for a sake, but a big win for SakéOne brewing. The taste of victory is a premium, balanced soft-water sake with fall fruit flavors and a pinch of anise in the aroma.

Initially bold rice-forward with a mellow middle palate, finishing clean but slightly lingering.

Sawanoi's brewery is located deep inside the valleys along the western side of Tokyo prefecture. Accordingly, the heavily sloped land makes it impossible to drill a well vertically. Sawanoi's source for its water is a well that was drilled horizontally into the side of a mountain. The water sourced from this unique well generally takes 7-8 years to filter through the mountain rock.

Takaisami Hiyaoroshi Junmai is a fall release sake that is produced in spring, conditioned over the summer, bottled and released in fall.

With a nose of strawberry, watermelon, sweet rice, and cinnamon, this undiluted sake is fat, happy, bright, and chewy. Fruity, but not overly sweet, think big thoughts when tasting this velvety Nama that is pure pleasure in a can.

Look for plum, melon, peach scents in sake that drink with far more pop in a wine glass. Semi-fruity brew with a unique dryness that speaks to wine drinkers.

Made using the "Shizukushibori" method and head water of the Yabe River, Kansansui has a soft touch coupled with subtle fruit and rice notes.

This sake is a product of the collaboration of Regis Camus, the world-famous cellarmaster at Maison Rare Champagne, and Hakushika. Together they deliver a sake that fills the senses with the essence of blossoming flowers and cocoa. This flavorful combo is presented with a light, dry texture that fades into a gently sweet aftertaste. For the full experience, serve chilled in a wine glass alongside some sashimi.
