The nose on this seasonally released unpasteurized and “free run” sake is a cool collection of powdered sugar, ginger, lemon lime, honey, cooked pear, and yeasty aromas. Say hello to a very flavorful seasonal sake that drinks smooth and very expressive. Slightly spritzy, crisp, juicy, rich light™, and very round, this winter brew is lively and yet very balanced and would appeal to those who want “vat fresh” sake that is soft and delicious. Look for apricot, pastry icing, powdered sugar, coconut, Calpico™, lemon zest, and a touch of minerality, with a dry ricey finish. New to the market, this Arabashiri is a winner and should not be missed! WORD: Fresh WINE: Zesty Reds/Crisp Whites BEER: Crisp Ales FOODS: International spice, American sushi, crab, shrimp, spicy handrolls, and fried chicken.
