Sake might just be the most famous example of rice wine - though, rice "wine" is actually brewed, similar to beer. Like wine, sake can range from dry to sweet, and there are many different types and qualities. So how do you know what to look for? Well, we suggest heading to your local Japanese restaurant and making no plans for the next day...
  1. Brewed 100% with the rich yet complex bizen-omachi rice, also known as "the phantom sake rice" for its scarceness and difficulty to grow. The result is an elegant ginjō, juicy and full of umami, balanced with moderate tartness and an extra long and crisp finish.
    $59.95 Bottle
  2. Takara Kyoto Yuzu Liqueur
    $23.95 Each
  3. Jozen Rock Sake
    $27.95 Bottle
  4. This junmai-shu measures +17.8 on the Japanese sake scale making it super-dry at face value. However, it carries an umami that blooms in the mouth, giving the sake a gentler flavour profile. A sake that showcases both the true umami of rice, alongside a very clean finish.
    $59.95 Bottle
  5. Originally commissioned for the exclusive Kitcho restaurant, which many critics consider as the icon of Japanese haute cuisine. Brewed with yamada-nishiki and omachi rice. Strong-bodied, full of umami, with a slight firmness. The sake is raw-stored at -5°C for at least 3 years to embed its ripeness, giving a long and crisp finish. Serve chilled.
    $59.95 Bottle
  6. This is a light and fruity sake with bright fresh aroma. You can enjoy the mild nice aftertaste. This is an ideal accompaniment for any kinds of meals, and an ideal introduction for beginners to the world of Japanese sake.

  7. Kubota Junmai Daiginjo Sake

Grand Prix Winner at the inaugural Tenma Tenjin Umeshu Competition (Japan’s biggest umeshu competition).
    $63.95 Bottle
