Uka Purple Label Junmai Daiginjo 300ml

Tasting Notes

Fruity yet delicate with pleasant aromas of green apple, pear and hints of anise. There are secondary notes of pear, mint, and bright tropical fruit. The palate has some sesame seed, meadow flowers and is very easy and pleasing. Smooth dry and light on entry with honeysuckle, minerality, creamy apple and a long finish.

 

This delicious, organic junmai daiginjo sake is exceptional with food.

 

From the Producer: Today it begins as a proprietary heirloom rice variety grown organically on the San Joaquin Valley Califronia family farm of Ross Koda. The farm was established in 1928 by his grandfather, a Japanese immigrant from Fukushima, Japan, Keisaburo Koda who south to stregthen ties between the USA and Japan. Ross's dream was to complete this circle by having his California grown rice brewed into sake near Keisaburo's birthplace at the brewery Ninki Shuzo in Fukushinma. A brewery with more than nineteen generations of brewing experience and skill working with Koda Farm's California organic rice is bringing together two different worlds which have coalesced into the unique drink that is Uka sake.
