Product details
Amabuki, hailing from Saga Prefecture, is celebrated for blending tradition with innovation, and this Himawari showcases that philosophy perfectly. Crafted using a unique sunflower yeast, it offers a distinctive character that elevates every sip. Unpasteurized to preserve its vibrant freshness, it presents a clean, graceful body that highlights delicate, layered flavors without heaviness, reflecting the meticulous care and passion behind its creation.
The tasting experience is both intriguing and approachable. Aromas of wildflowers and subtle anise lead to a smooth, rounded palate that evolves gracefully. A hint of dryness on the finish provides balance and refreshment, making it versatile with a range of dishes—from seafood and pickled fish to creamy cheeses like blue or cream cheese. The crisp, lingering finish leaves a memorable impression, inviting repeated enjoyment and exploration.
