HOW TO ENJOY
PAIRING
This lively yuzu sake harmonizes beautifully with fresh and lightly seasoned dishes. Think chilled sashimi with ponzu, peppery arugula salad, steamed fish drizzled with soy‑yuzu sauce, citrus‑glazed chicken, or even pound cake and fruit plates. Its sweet‑sour balance bridges savory and dessert effortlessly.
SERVING
Serve slightly chilled, around 45–50 °F, to enhance its vivid green hue and fragrant profile. For a cozy alternative, gently warm it (nurukan style) to release its smooth umami and tea aromas. Ideal served in a wine glass or traditional ochoko.
