Brewmaster Yuichi Tsubosaka makes chokara (“extremely dry”) style sake unlike anyone else. While typically lean and austere, his Chokara Junmai Ginjo starts luscious and fruity, with a generous fllavors of tropical fruit. It resolves to a beautifully spicy finish reminiscent of white pepper. While an excellent match for richer foods, it is delicate and compelling enough to enjoy on its own.
