Food Pairings: Grilled vegetables, lighter styles of pasta dishes, or for Japanese cuisine, spinach with karashi-su-miso, and fresh sashimi.
Tasting Notes: We chose the recently revived rice “Soubei Wase” for the first NEHAN series, which contributes to the unique flavor of this sake. It took us over three years to revive this rice variety which was originally native to the Shonai Region; it is the parent of legendary heirloom rice strain “Kame no O”.
This sake has a gentle and delicate floral aroma and a soft sweetness. Soubei Wase does not have the ‘flashiness’ of more recently developed sake rice; rather, it gives you a sense of refined rustic beauty. We believe the charm and taste this historic sake rice provides will deepen and mature over time, and thus sake made from it are excellent for aging. We hope you enjoy this sake imagining how the flavors developed with maturation, what it tasted like freshly brewed and how it will be in years to come.
