Harushika “Extra Dry”

This super dry junmai was created to complement the trend of richer foods in Japan. There’s a delightful lightness and umami to this sake, which happens to be the brewery chairman’s favorite since 1985. Flavors of dry herbs, mint and sage expand over your palate and leave a pleasant star anise aftertaste. Don’t let the extra dryness prevent you from giving this one a try—it’s worth it.
