Sho Chiku Bai Extra Dry Junmai is a traditional Junmai sake but with very little sweetness. This gives it a lighter, crisper mouthfeel and a clean finish. This, along with its gently savoury palate, makes it a good food pairing sake and also an excellent ingredient in cocktails. At any temperature, this sake has a core of savoury minerals. When warm, aromas and flavours include salted rice, bran, sourdough bread and parmesan cheese. The warmth also provides a rounder mouthfeel. At room temperature or chilled, flavours of mineral and lightly toasted sourdough bread emerge, with a touch of salted butter, green almonds, spice, and warm rice.
