From Ehime prefecture comes this carefully made Umenishiki “Junmai Daiginjo,” a locally loved and frequently gifted premium sake. Using the king of sake rice Yamadanishiki, and abundant natural waters from the Shikoku Mountains, the careful, low-temperature fermentation produces notes of banana and flowers. Try pairing it with fresh tofu, lightly seasoned broth, and dishes that honor the flavors of the ingredients. It’s recommended to serve it slightly chilled in a wine glass.
