Tasting Notes

The Ichiban Matoi is a beautifully dense and complex sake, offering notes of fresh tropical fruits such as melon, papaya, and strawberry. The sake's gorgeous aromatics are matched by a soft, pleasantly off-dry flavor, balanced by a light acidity. This medium-full-bodied sake is both bracing and lively, representing a racy example of the Daiginjo category. It is enjoyable on its own or pairs well with lighter fare like fluke, salted and grilled vegetables, and even fresh fruit for a pleasantly surprising pairing.
