The nose on this seasonally released Nama version of our usual Sensations White is a very cool collection of green apple, green grape, citrus icing, tangerine, lime zest, bamboo, white chocolate, and powdered sugar aromas. Are you ready for a Nama Junmai that drinks more like an unpasteurized Ginjo? This brew is a good old-fashioned “user friendly” raw sake that is fresh, smooth, plump, round, creamy with a medium body that drinks with a flavorful glide across the palate with a delicious sea water finish. Look for apple, pear, rock candy, clementine, strawberry, candied lime, cucumber, sage, lemongrass, and mineral water flavors that are mouth watering, juicy, plush, ripe, and very slick. This is a great Gifting Nama at a great price point!

The nose on this seasonally released unpasteurized version of one of our favorite pasteurized brews is a spectacular collection of Lychee, passion fruit, white grape, kiwi, bamboo, citrus, and tropical aromas. Smooth, clean, crisp, and chewy, this living brew is slippery with a great body. A very fresh and “green” nama that has a sneaky richness with a hint of astringency and a crisp finish. Look for mango, green apple, raisin, white grape, banana bread, rock sugar, and grapefruit flavors that glide on the fresh and refreshing flow. Lots of depth to this brew that drinks with a peek-a-boo dense quality that feels great in the palate. WORD: Fresh WINE: Lively Reds/Crisp Whites BEER: Crisp Ales FOODS: Street fare, beach cuisines, shellfish, picnic foods, and light international spice.
