In 3 words: Premium sake trio

A tasting set of premium sake that showcases three unique expressions of the Daiginjo grade from three respected breweries. Daiginjo uses highly polished sake rice (milled down to 50% or less of its original size) resulting in a clean, refined beverage that pairs superbly with sushi and sashimi.

In 3 words: Elusive, subtle & balanced

Delicately flavoured, astonishingly subtle, impeccably balanced, this legendary label is the despair of sake critics in Japan, who confess that its flavour is impossible to describe. This Daiginjo is brewed with Yamadanishiki rice milled to an eye-watering 30% then aged at 1°C for roughly two years, the brewers undoubtedly extract out the limits umami and depth of flavour.

A collaboration between acclaimed French cellar master, Regis Camus, and Asahi Shuzo (of Dassai fame), this premium sake is a knock-out on every level.

A sublime fruity sake in a striking square bottle that’s perfect for a special occasion.

• Grade: Daiginjo (Genshu)

• Brewery: Tosatsuru

• Region: Kochi

• Rice polishing: 40%

Size: 720ml | ABV: 12%

In 3 words: Unique, tart, berry

A uniquely pink-hued sake, its colour coming from a very unusual red yeast called 'Sekishoku Kobo'. On the nose: a basket of summer berries, grapefruit, cranberry, tomato water, grass and sherry, with vividly fresh acidity. Juicy but dry, crisp and a little tart, sweet but not too sweet. With eyes open, taste plum, cranberries and crisp red tart apples; with eyes closed, sweet rice, orange and apricot, finishing with a sweet-tart snap. A lower 12% ABV genshu that drinks best in a larger glass. Marvellous as an aperitif, much like a crisp rosé.
