Product information "Asama Higen Zankara Junmai - 720ml"

Higen Zankara Junmai is a very dry sake with a sake meter value of +15. This makes it one of the driest sake group available, but it can be even drier. A number of sake in Japan have an SMV (Sake Meter Value) of even +25

When served cold, it has a crisp, refreshing flavor, while served hot offers a rich full-bodied flavor. Thus, it is a very dry versatile sake that can be enjoyed at different temperatures.

On the nose, banana, apricot, steamed rice and earthy notes. On the pallet a lot of Umami and the same flavors as you encountered earlier in the nose, which makes this sake a balanced impression.
