Akabu “Junmai Daiginjo”
Iwate prefecture
Simply divine
Akabu Brewing Company always wants their sake to represent Iwate prefecture, and their junmai daiginjo is a perfect reflection of this. The elegant floral and melon scent is like the white clouds floating over Iwate, and the creamy vanilla flavor feels like a calm afternoon under the cherry blossoms. A soft nuttiness on the finish pulls it all together into a divine drink that everyone should try.
