PREFECTURE: Yamaguchi
Rice Variety: Yamada Nishiki
Seimaibuai (Rice Polishing Rate): 50%
Ohmine Summer Kasumi is a sake that delights the senses with its aromatic hints of pear and white peaches. Note that "Kasumi" or "slightly cloudy" sake, is in reference to its brewing process. On the palate, the sake reveals a refreshing taste of sweet and tart muscat grapes, layered with a subtle effervescence and silky texture from its Moromi (Kasumi means slightly cloudy) brewing process. The water used in production is known for its softness, but it contains twice the amount of calcium compared to the average tap water in Japan, lending a distinctive minerality to the sake. Finally, the aftertaste is a harmonious blend of elegant bitterness and bright acidity reminiscent of grapefruit. Overall, Ohmine Summer Kasumi is a multi-dimensional sake that offers a truly enjoyable drinking experience especially in the summer. PAIRING Salted olives, summer vegetable tempura, fluke carpaccio. Please serve in a wine glass.
