Ozeki Karatamba Honjozo Sake: Extra Dry, Crisp and Light Bodied

Ozeki Karatamba is a refined honjozo sake brewed in Hyogo Prefecture, renowned for its clear expression and dry finish. Crafted by the Tamba toji brewing tradition, it uses high-quality Yamadanishiki rice polished to 70%, resulting in a sake that is smooth, elegant, and exceptionally food-friendly.

On the nose, Ozeki Karatamba presents clean and subtle aromas of green apple, pear, and steamed rice, with faint floral and earthy undertones that give it a delicate aromatic lift. The palate is light and crisp, with a dry profile featuring gentle umami, soft herbal nuances, and a touch of nuttiness. The texture is refreshing and streamlined, offering clarity and purity in every sip. The finish is dry and brisk, leaving behind a clean sensation with hints of rice sweetness and lingering mineral notes that enhance its refreshing character.

With an alcohol content of 16% and a sake meter value of +7, Ozeki Karatamba is best enjoyed slightly chilled, at room temperature, or gently warmed to unlock deeper savory elements. Its dry structure makes it an ideal companion to spicy dishes, grilled meats, fried appetizers, sashimi, ramen, or richly seasoned Asian cuisine.
