Sawahime Tokubetsu Junmai 720ml

This premium Tokubetsu Junmai sake is pasteurised immediately after pressing and stored at near-freezing temperatures to preserve its freshness. Made with 100% Tochigi-grown sake rice Yume Sasara, it offers a vibrant profile with juicy acidity reminiscent of fresh green fruits. Its lively aroma and flavour give it a freshness similar to unpasteurised sake.
