Kikusui

Steamed rice and roasted hazelnut lead a rich, expressive aroma, with tropical fruit and white flowers adding lift. The palate is full-bodied and creamy, carrying ripe banana and persimmon into touches of cinnamon, marzipan and chamomile. Despite its generous texture, the finish remains fresh, clean and mouthwatering. Serve well chilled with grilled vegetables, yakitori or savoury rice dishes.

Cloudy and richly textured, with full-bodied sweetness arriving first before a crisp, dynamic finish restores balance. Fine rice solids add a softly granular texture, while the undiluted style gives the palate breadth and intensity. Serve well chilled or over ice; a splash of soda can lighten the profile. Pair with sushi, yakitori, spicy Korean dishes, barbecue ribs or savoury grilled meats.
