Hawk in Heavens Junmai Rice Sake

Serious sake!

Carmelized soy, meaty, mushroomy, savory umami. Awesome. Made for inland cuisine, dark soy, seared meats.

Cool pairing with salmon skin roll

Nice sake on the savory side. Light chill. For my wife’s bday ❤️

Not loving. Has a Chardonnay color. Aroma is a washed out soy sauce. Flavor is acidic and while not heavy alcohol it’s there.

Vanilla and almond on the aroma. Creamy body upfront that quickly turns into a high drying acid that reminds me of grapefruit zest. Lemongrass on the mid palate and as it gets closer to room temp, the nuttiness turns into pistachio. Definitely the best Sake I’ve had in a long time.

A bit intense for a sake. Cherry blossom, floral. Hint of vanilla or sour caramel. Flavourful.

Rich & toasty sake goodness.
