It offers a bold, sweet-tart flavor reminiscent of fresh bananas. The complex interplay of diverse flavors creates a richly expressive experience. By using more rice koji than usual (30% instead of the typical 20%), this sake achieves a robust taste. Enjoy it freely without being bound by traditional notions of sake. It can be enjoyed chilled or at room temperature in a wine glass, and the brewer recommends serving it warm at a lukewarm temperature. Its distinctive character also pairs well with bitter chocolate.
