Okunoto no Shiragiku Kijoshu
Okunoto no Shiragiku Kijoshu
A kijoshu is made by replacing some of the water used in the sake making process with additional sake. The result is an incredibly intense sweetness, similar to that of pourriture wine and ice wine.

OUR TASTING NOTES: Elegantly sweet sake with banana ice cream and vanilla notes on the nose. Balanced acidity and fruity flavours of watermelon on the palate.
FOOD PAIRING: Perfect with delicate desserts such as ice cream and fresh fruits platters. The brewers suggest trying it with savoury dishes too.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Great both as an aperitif and a digestif, enjoy well chilled (4-8 ºC) or with ice. To make a refreshing drink, simply add soda water or lemon juice!
