“Taru sake” is stored in barrels, which is often reserved for special occasions, but the brewers think it’s so good they decided to produce this sake to be enjoyed anytime. This sake is stored in cedar barrels made in house at Kikumasamune, using cedar from sustainably maintained Yoshinosugi area. The flavor is a bit smoky with umami in the front and some lingering spiciness in the back.

Umami-rich, dried seafood pairs well with kimoto sake. For sake ware, we recommend cups or tools that can be for warmed or chilled sake.
