Yoi no Tsuki Daiginjo "Midnight Moon"
The nose on this northern Japan sake is a slick collection of strawberry, peach, grape, blueberry, mint, vanilla, herbs, and huckleberry aromas. Martini drinkers rejoice as this soft, silky, and smooth brew drinks with a crispness and snap that appeals to those who like a little alcohol pop on a very elegant Daiginjo flow. Look for blueberry, pomegranate, dried nectarine, banana, mochi, whipped cream, tapioca, and King's Hawaiian™ sweet roll flavors that glide on the medium bodied texture, with a quick and tingly finish. This is a very stylized Daiginjo that drinks very much like a competition-made sake. WORD: Smooth WINE: Crisp Reds/Snappy Whites BEER: Crisp Ales FOODS: Fine cheeses, smoked fish, caviar, oysters, green salads, and tangy fruits.
