Product details
This Wakabotan from Oita Prefecture, Kyushu, reflects the dedication of Koku no Kura to traditional craftsmanship and local ingredients. Made from Hinohikari rice, it is carefully brewed to preserve its natural essence, without dilution or filtration. The result is a refined and expressive beverage that balances purity with depth, highlighting the subtle character of its ingredients. Its approachable yet elegant style makes it versatile for both casual enjoyment and more contemplative sipping.
On the nose, it offers a vibrant bouquet of fresh citrus, white peach, and Fuji apple, immediately inviting the senses. The palate dances between gentle sweetness and bright acidity, with a slight effervescence that adds liveliness and intrigue. It finishes clean and crisp, leaving a refreshing, dry impression that lingers. Best served chilled in a wine glass, it pairs effortlessly with a wide variety of dishes, from marinated salmon and fresh cheeses like feta or ricotta, to spicier fare such as hot wings or green curry, making every experience memorable.
