//

3 sake in this triple pack:

Hanzo Tokubetsu Junmai - The palate is mandarin and pear with very well integrated acidity. It's quite obvious why it won the Gold Medal at the Slow Food Japan Hot Sake Award  2014 and IWC Gold Medal 2020 and Gold Medal at Fine Sake Awards in 2022.

Senbazuru Yamahai Zukuri - Aroma of citrus, butter and dried apricot. A multifaceted palate of lemon, apricot, raisin and umami with a clean finish and gentle acidity. Great to pair up with chahan, mushroom risotto or grilled mackerel. When served warm, lemon becomes milder, enjoy more raisin and light caramel. A simpler drink to warm the cockles of your heart.

Oita Hida Jiman Oni Koroshi Junmai - An old school dry sake, the type enjoyed by many an oji san (old men) all over Japan. If you are of the opinion that sake shouldn’t exhibit fruit characters of any sort, this sake is for you. A simple sake with characteristics of chestnut, fresh hazelnut and spice with a short clean finish. Best enjoyed room temp or gently warmed (38℃).
