Obata Shuzo | Junmai Ginjo Yamahai
Kanadel apple yeast junmai ginjo yamahai
Due to the apple yeast in combination with the yamahai starter, you will experience a higher level of acidity that is particularly refreshing. On the nose, there are hints of green apple and starch, leading to an elegant yet fresh, creamy finish.
Pairing:
Goat cheese salad with apple and walnuts
The sake’s green-apple aroma mirrors the apple in the salad, its acidity balances the tangy goat cheese, and the creamy finish works beautifully with soft cheeses and nuts.
Sashimi (white fish such as tai or hirame)
Clean, delicate fish highlights the sake’s refreshing acidity. The subtle starch and apple notes lift the sweetness of the fish, and the creamy finish adds depth without overpowering it.
