Sweetness, acidity and piquant plum flavour distinguish this lovely low-alcohol aperitif. Green plums provide the tartness, artisan rock sugar the sweetness and pure junmai sake the satisfying balance and smoothness. Always serve chilled, either as an aperitif or after-dinner drink. Also lends itself to enjoyable mealtime sipping.

No brewery in Japan has taken a stronger stand for individuality than Kamoizumi. Their sake has an attitude: robust, tawny, full-flavored, yet with the smooth finish and easy drinkability that are the hallmarks of technical mastery. Aging and blending are paramount, and when finally released the Kamoizumi labels pair well with meat dishes and Chinese cuisine, a rarity in the sake world. Connoisseurs admire their supple balance of sweetness, acidity, astringency and the elusive flavor component of “umami.”
