Jozen “White”
Niigata Prefecture
Dry and delightful
A sake that definitely falls on the dry side, but not disastrously so. The faint strawberry nose might throw you for a loop because the sake’s flavor is more of a crisp green apple that dances through the dry. Subtle sweetness plays out through it all, bringing just the right balance to pull this sake together. Be sure to savor the gentle umami too, a nice treat to an already nice drink.
