The nose on this superb offering from a very cult sake brewery is a splendid collection of jack fruit, rose water, aloe, mint, vanilla, White Rabbit Creamy Candy™, and white blossom aromas. This is the Daiginjo version of the “Black Label,” which is made with a local consumption or “food” rice Tsuyuhakaze milled to 50%. Say hello to a fun sake! Say hello to a sake with a smile! Say hello to a sake that we know the brewers had fun making! This is the ultimate point of sake right – to be fun and taste great. Bright, light, spritzy, lively, effervescent, and tingly, this brew is not silly. Rather it is a refreshing and expressive sake that features elegant spritz. Some sakes are made, this “Pink Label” is built to achieve something and that is to highlight an amazing flavor field of grapefruit, ginger, tangerine, crème brulée, kiwi, Milkis™ soft drink, Tokyo Banana™, and mint tea flavors. Refreshingly complex sake that has a creamy medium body on a spritzy flow (how do they do that?) that is simply fun sake. WORD: Fun WINE: Zesty Reds/Effervescent Whites BEER: Creamy Ales FOODS: Sashimi, shellfish, oysters, caviar, meat, cheese and fruit boards, Champagne fare.
