Tasting Notes

Abe Junmai Ginjo offers a nuanced and balanced flavor profile, showcasing the expressive side of Fragrant Japanese Niigata sake craftsmanship. Made with locally grown rice polished to 60%, it opens with a fruity and juicy palate, followed by a refreshing acidity that adds structure and clarity. Compared to its Junmai counterpart, this version is cleaner, slightly more acidic, and finishes with a crisp, refined bitterness that adds sophistication to the overall experience.

Crafted in Japan, the versatility of this sake lies in its temperature adaptability. When served at 40°F, it emphasizes clarity and lightness, while at 50–60°F, its deeper umami and complexity emerge, making it suitable for different culinary moments.

Great Abe sake!

The micro-bubbles give it a nice lift, just enough to make each sip feel fresh. It’s clean, smooth, and has that quiet elegance some pricier sakes miss. Not flashy, but really well made.
