WHY THIS SAKE IS SPECIAL
A sake made for celebration. Kaga Tsuru Junkin no Mai brings together two traditions of Kanazawa: Yachiya's centuries-old sake brewing and the city's celebrated craft of gold leaf.
Made with Gohyakumangoku rice polished to 60%, this Junmai has a gentle, balanced character that lets the natural flavour of the rice come through. Pure Kanazawa gold leaf shimmers in the bottle and dances in the glass, turning every pour into something a little more special.
THE FIRST SIP
Gentle and rounded, with soft rice sweetness, savoury umami and a smooth, balanced finish.
ENJOY IT WITH
Sashimi, grilled fish, tempura and yakitori that pair naturally with its gentle rice sweetness and savoury umami.
