Jouku Pink Donberi 720ml
"Jouku Pink Donberi" is a popular fruity Junmai sake made by Hachinohe Shurui, characterized by its gorgeous and light taste. Nicknamed "Pink Donberi" due to its cute pink bottle design, it has attracted attention as a bottle that looks great as a gift or for parties.
The refreshing aroma of ginjo sake spreads pleasantly in the mouth, and when you put it in your mouth, you can feel the soft, clear umami flavor and subtle sweetness in a well-balanced way. It has a light taste, but the refined flavor makes you feel the presence of rice, which is its charm. Enjoy it chilled in a wine glass to further enhance the aroma and light aftertaste.
It goes perfectly with light-tasting dishes such as Japanese cuisine, appetizers, salads, carpaccio, white fish, and fruit dishes.It is also a perfect aperitif to enjoy during your relaxing time.
