Harushika “Sakura”
Nara prefecture
$34.00
Mighty pairing for everyday foods
The sakura (cherry blossom), the national flower of Japan, was chosen to represent this universally approachable junmai. Hinohikari table rice provides ample umami with underlying sweetness. Herb-seasoned sautéed vegetables, mushrooms and meats would be a great pairings, as this sake compliments dishes that honor the inherent flavors of the ingredients. Enjoy it chilled for refreshing notes, and warm to bring out the umami.
