Product Notes:
Made by Suwa Shuzo, Tottori Prefecture. Soft, honey-laced nose with just a tad of fruitiness. Dry overall, but with a sweet element creeping out of the background. Good richness and overall balance in a slightly dry profile.

About Varietal:
Sak�, served chilled like wine, is quickly becoming the perfect accompaniment for contemporary cuisine. This new trend has only taken 6800 years to arrive in the United States and with our emphasis on healthy living it appears to be an excellent match.

One out of every five glasses of wine consumed in the world is sak�. Since we seem behind the rest of the world in our consumption and knowledge, we need to explore what we have been missing.

Sake, the drink of the Gods in Japan has long been linked to the ancient Shinto religion. Matsuosama, the main sak�-brewing deity has shrines dedicated to him inside Japanese breweries. A Shinto ritual called O-miki is performed by a priest who sips sak� from a white porcelain cup at the altar. It is believed that he is taking a bit of the god-force into himself and becoming at one with the gods.
