Delicious to the last drop

Akabu Brewing Company believes this sake represents their image best. Brewed using local Iwate sake rice called Ginginga and Iwate yeast, this junmai is juicy and brimming with umami. A medley of peach, strawberry and grapefruit notes adds a slight sweetness and lingering acidity to keep you coming back for more. This combination brought this brew a gold medal at the International Wine Challenge for both 2018 and 2019!
