Mutsu Hassen Black Label Junmai Ginjo

 Hachinohe Shuzo; a microbrewery in Aomori prefecture that selects local rice and yeast and brews with the famous water of Kanizawa, Hachinohe. Their aim is to produce a modern sake that is delicious yet safe for the environment and personal health. They use 100% white koji in their moromi base giving their sake a fresh, straight-from-the-brewery character.    Displays a hint of sake's natural golden color, and exudes plumes of fresh, juicy apple aromatics. The sake also has a refreshing adidity that melts gently into a sea of umami, allowing it to adapt easily in many different pairings.    Pairs well with chicken served with full grain mustard, oden, red fleshed fish sashimi, baked salmon
