Fukucho “Seaside”
Hiroshima prefecture

Effervescent delight
This is a sparkling sake made through an in-bottle secondary fermentation process. Each sip delivers an effervescent sensation that fizzles the citrus flavor across your palate. When it fades you’re left with a refreshing finish. In order to achieve the citrus notes, brewmaster Miho Imada uses some white koji in the sake. As the name implies, this sake pairs best with all types of seafood.

Very bright and bubbly. It reminds me of champagne.
Light and crisp with a smooth citrus flavor. Stronger then most of the other sparking we’ve tried but still very refreshing & delicious. Will absolutely get this again.
Deliciously crisp with strong citrus notes and in my opinion a very subtle sparkling.
I've tried a few sparkling sakes and many are too rich or sweet for my taste, but not this one. Seaside is light and crisp - absolutely perfect for a hot summer day.
Great flavor profile one of the favorites!
Strong citrus flavor with a crisp undertone, a very unique sparkling sake that has to be tasted to be understood.
Crisp, smooth, and refreshing.....another sake I'll buy again.
One of the best sparkling sakes. It's a little creamy like a nigori. Goes great with seafood but also is nice on it's own. Smooth and refreshing.
The sparkle pops in this sake. The bottle is also gorgeously designed. Can't go wrong!
Even though the bottle is small, it packs a punch! I mixed this sake with other sparkling drinks and it gave the drink a kick without overpowering the flavor. Will definitely buy again!
