Yamamoto Tensugi Yamahai Junmai
Japanese Sake
$78.99
Green apple, white peach and citrus open the aroma, followed by a distinctive thread of cedar and pine. The palate is layered and energetic, with juicy acidity shaping ripe orchard fruit, earthy rice character and savoury umami. A light mineral firmness keeps the texture poised, while the wooden-vat influence remains subtle rather than dominant. The finish is dry, gently spicy and persistent. Serve lightly chilled with grilled mushrooms, miso-marinated fish, roast pork or smoked tofu.
Yamamoto Pure Black Junmai Ginjo
Japanese Sake
$79.99
Grapefruit, muscat melon and kiwi give the aroma a bright, modern feel, with a faint mineral note adding definition. The palate is fresh and juicy, balancing ripe citrus and orchard fruit with elegant acidity, gentle rice sweetness and a subtle savoury undertone. Its texture is smooth without becoming heavy, and the fruit stays precise through a clean, brisk finish. Serve well chilled with sashimi, grilled prawns, tempura, fresh chèvre or citrus-dressed salads.
Yamamoto Butterfly Purple Kamenoo Junmai Ginjo Nama Genshu
Japanese Sake
$76.99
Citrus peel and grapefruit lead into juicy starfruit, white peach and young pineapple. The palate is lively and concentrated, with fresh acidity giving shape to firm apricot-like fruit and a clear savoury umami core. Kamenoo rice contributes a lightly rustic grain character that adds interest beneath the polished fruit. The finish is brisk, dry and sharply defined. Serve well chilled with sashimi, grilled squid, salt-grilled fish, braised pork or pickled vegetables.
Yamamoto Doh-Kara Extra Dry Junmai
Japanese Sake
$74.99
A fresh, lightly aromatic opening gives way to a brief hint of sweetness before the palate turns decisively dry. Clean rice flavour and a bright, ginjo-like lift keep the middle focused, while the extra-dry structure builds toward the finish. The final impression is crisp and energetic, with savoury clarity, faint sweetness and firm dryness arriving in a well-defined sequence.
