Kitajima Brewery 'The Octopus of Shiga Bay' Sake 720ml

Kitajima Sake Brewery was established in 1805 and is one of Japan's oldest and most respected sake breweries, situated in the beautiful Shiga Prefecture near Lake Biwa. Their highly crafted range is unique and distinctive with a palate that is much richer and fruitier than the average sake. 

Named after the mythical Octopus which is said to guard Shiga Bay, this robust sake has a rich mix of fruit and savoury elements. An elegant sessionable sake for both dining and imbibing! Pair with gyoza, teriyaki marinade, grilled meat, fatty fish, sashimi and sushi!

Nose: Crisp, fruity and floral.
Palate: Upfront green melon, white peach, and edamame, leading to nougat and cream.
Finish: Savoury undertones of shiitake mushrooms, rice bran, and almonds with a hint of salt and pepper to close.
