A Gold Medal at the International Wine Challenge, Hino Shizuku Yuzu sake is produced by Kanbai Brewery in Osaki, Miyagi Prefecture. It is made with Miyakanbai Ginjo grade sake, known for its smooth and delicate taste. It is infused with yuzu from the famed Umaji Village, renowned for its high-quality citrus.
On the nose it has an intense aroma of fresh yuzu zest. A sweet and tart interplay in the palate, giving a delightful balance of sweetness from the sake and tartness from the yuzu. This complex flavor profile keeps you engaged in each sip.
Unlike some sweeter sakes, Hino Shizuku has a clean and refreshing finish that leaves you wanting more.
Ideal for enjoying chilled on its own as an aperitif or after a meal. Pairs well with light and flavorful dishes like seafood, sashimi, sushi, salads, and vegetable tempura. Can be used in cocktails for a unique citrus twist.
