Gakki Masamune Honjozo Sake Nakadori (720ml)

$2399

Fukushima.The nose on this stunning Honjozo sake is a vast collection of orange creamsicle, blueberry, watermelon, Rice Krispies Treats®, peach, banana bread, and flan aromas. Brewed with Yume no Kaori rice milled to 66%, this sake drinks smooth, rich, plump, and expansive, but has an uplifting tingle and spritz that lightens the overall drinking experience. If a sake could be refreshing, then this is as refreshing as sake can get! Look for a ton of rock sugar, watermelon, kiwi, peach, honey, Pixy Stix™, berries and cream, lemon-lime, strawberry candy, and minerals, with a quick cereal milk finish that has a sneaky umami departure. This sake is so good for the Honjozo category, and a terrific reminder that added alcohol sakes aren’t the devil! WORD: Stunning WINE: Frisky Reds/Uplifting Whites BEER: Crisp Ales FOODS: Crab, lobster, sushi, sashimi, shrimp, fruit plates, oysters, and yakitori.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

Skurnik Wines

<p>Notes of Muscat, fresh green grapes and Mandarin orange. Appealing glossy texture, juicy and full with a crisp finish.</br>A great pairing for richer cuisine like fried spring rolls, goat cheese or chicken braised in teriyaki.</br>“Nakadori” is sake that just uses the middle press of sake without blending in the brash flavors of the initial “arabashiri” that first comes off the press or the slightly bitter flavors at the end.</p>
