Isake Classic Junmai
A Western Twist on Traditional Sake
Isake Classic Junmai, a unique fusion of Eastern tradition and Western taste, emerges as an exceptional player in the sake world.
This sake is crafted by the experts at Isake in collaboration with the toji (master sake brewer) at Tatsuuma-Honke Brewery. Its distinctive character, appealing to Western palates, makes it a versatile choice for various culinary experiences, transcending traditional Japanese cuisine boundaries.
Isake Classic Junmai stands out with its viscous, soft delivery, offering a palate graced with rounded notes of orchid, vanilla, and walnuts. When served chilled, it reveals cleaner, mineral notes reminiscent of chalk and spring water. Conversely, warming this sake up yields a dryer profile with hints of lemongrass and spice, making it an excellent accompaniment for food.
Rooted in tradition yet tailored for contemporary tastes, Isake Classic Junmai is a product of meticulous craftsmanship. It features a blend of Gohyakumangoku, Yumenishiki, and Nishihomare rice with a 60% polishing rate. The result is a sake with a degree of 14.7%, reflecting a careful balance between tradition and modernity.
It is a perfect companion for Japanese favorites like sushi and sashimi and aligns gracefully with Western gourmet selections like caviar, oysters, foie gras, salade nicoise, and various Greek and Italian salads.
