PAIRINGCOMING SOON
A sake brewed by Obuse Winery, a rare wine producer in Nagano Prefecture, using a mixed fermentation of yeast No.1 and yeast No.2 that the winery has carried on through its own in-house cultivation. The aroma is somewhat restrained, with plant-like nuances like rush grass and lemongrass, plus a banana-like fruitiness. The flavour is led by a slow, seeping acidity that smoothly shifts into umami and body.
