Wakatake Onna Nakase Junmai Daiginjo 300ml

The nose on this “Exclusive” and sold-out sake in Japan is a collection of oatmeal, cooked grains, steamed rice, cantaloupe and chestnut elements. The name of this sake translates to “Makes women cry” and for good reason as the complexity and drinkability of this sake are second to none. Far more masculine than the Wakatake Daiginjo this brew drinks rich, and round with a long tail. So many flavours on so many levels behold raisin, dry figs, vanilla, nougat, brown sugar, overly ripe fruit, and a touch of the breakfast bar. A true red wine drinker’s Daiginjo with a full-bodied personality and a long finish, which does better in a larger glass. More rich and creamy characteristics come forth as it warms, and warming this sake makes a nice rich and bright drinking experience. WORD: Complex WINE: Bordeaux BEER: Large ales FOODS: Savory dishes, grilled fish and chicken, exotic sushi rolls, rich sauces.
