Tasting Notes

One of Kuheiji’s most popular Kurodasho expressions, appreciated for its elegance and gentle complexity. Kurodasho “Fukuji” opens with expressive aromas of melon and white peach, complemented by creamy undertones and vibrant fruit notes. As the sake aerates, subtle earthy nuances and a hint of mushroom appear, adding depth and complexity. On the palate, fresh and gentle acidity expands into a harmonious blend of umami and alcohol warmth, finishing smooth and elegantly lingering.

Note: This bottle comes with a wine-style cork and requires a bottle opener.

Overview

Best enjoyed well-chilled to highlight its clean structure and gentle fruit character. Its rounded umami and silky texture pair beautifully with dishes that emphasize richness and depth, especially those featuring cream, mushrooms, or warm savory profiles. Ideal alongside seafood gratin, mushroom dishes, and potato purée, where the sake’s soft acidity enhances balance while its subtle earthiness complements the food’s warmth.
