Do you like sake? This experience allows you to compare 8 carefully selected types of sake that can only be tasted in Japan. First, let's learn a little about sake. Let's start by trying sake with low alcohol content. The average alcohol content of sake is 15-16%. Some sake is lower, while others are higher. Another feature of sake is that it is easy to pair with food, whether it is sweet or dry, or at a certain temperature. Enjoy the pairing with snacks. The last glass is sweet sake, which can be enjoyed as a dessert.・Gakki Masamune Junmai Sake Junjo (Fukushima Prefecture) Junmai sake with an excellent balance of juicy sweetness and acidity ・Tamanohikari Junmai Daiginjo (Kyoto Prefecture) A strong flavor, yet smooth on the throat ・Sharaku Junmai Daiginjo (Fukushima Prefecture) A fruity aroma in the mouth ・Dainanai Junmai Kimoto Dashiwari (Fukushima Prefecture) A mellow, well-balanced sake with a pleasant umami and acidity on the aftertaste ・Kudoki Jouzu Junmai Ginjo (Yamagata Prefecture) A gorgeous, fruity aroma ・Oze no Yukidoke Junmai Daiginjo Mizore Sake (Oze no Yukidoke) ...
