Takara Sake USA wanted to create a sake that would tap into the California spirit. The surfing pelican on the label is a nod to the local culture and a hint of what to pair this junmai sake with: seafood! Using white koji instead of yellow koji increases the level of citric acid, making it a vibrant, refreshing drink that works perfectly with oysters, scallops, grilled lobster tail and more.
Complete your home izakaya with a snack and ware carefully selected by Tippsy — with no additional shipping fees!
Try some authentic Japanese drinking snacks to pair with flavorful junmai sake. For sake ware, we recommend glasses or cups that highlight the sake’s umami.
