Awards
Kan sake award2016 Premium Kan sake Division Gold

"Harushika Hourei Junmai" is an umami-type Junmai that is brewed using 100%"Hinohikari", a sake-brewing cultivar from Nara prefecture where sake was born. This sake's gentle aroma and delicate texture are coupled with the smooth umami flavor and sweetness of rice. Its profound umami flavor goes especially well with rich dishes that are sweet. In 2016, it was awarded the Gold Prize in the "Kan sake award", making it a recommended sake to be served warm. This product conveys the superior taste and qualities of Japanese sake that is brewed in Nara where sake was born using ingredients that are sourced from Nara.

Pairing food proposed from Vendor
Strongly-flavored, sweet dishes such as sukiyaki and stewed cubed pork are recommended.
