Sho Chiku Bai

Subtle fruit and toasted rice give the aroma a gentle, savoury warmth. The palate is medium-bodied and umami-driven, with notes of steamed grain, mild spice and a lightly briny, dashi-like depth. As it cools, the profile becomes cleaner and more mineral, with hints of vanilla and fresh dough. Enjoy chilled, at room temperature or gently warmed, pairing it with grilled salmon, teriyaki chicken, mushrooms, noodles or tempura.
