SAKE

Junmai: “Pure Rice Sake” made without added alcohol, polished to 70% or less. Rich, full-bodied, and true to the flavor of rice. 

Honjozo:  Polished to 70% or less with a touch of brewer’s alcohol, enhancing aroma and flavor. This addition enhances aroma and flavor, not alcohol content. Light, smooth, and easy to drink.

Ginjo: Made with rice polished to 60% or less, offering bright floral and fruity aromas with a softer profile than Junmai—an excellent choice for those new to sake.

Nigori: or “cloudy” sake, is gently coarsely filtered, leaving delicate rice solids that give it a rich, silky texture and a softly sweet flavor.
