Shichi Hon Yari "Fresh Katana" Spring Nama Junmai Sake (BTL720ml)

We try to pick up the seasonal releases from Shiga's Tomita Shuzo whenever we can, and we can say beyond a doubt that this Spring's Shichi Hon Yari is spectacular! This fresh-pressed shiboritate is pulled from the middle portion of the pressing and bottled for shipment just in time for spring sake-drinking festivities.

Using Tamazakae, an heirloom rice variety indigenous to Shiga prefecture, this expression of Shichi Hon Yari is deceptively light on the palate, sneaking its hefty 18% ABV by without issue. Get aromas of lemon, peach skin, and blood orange. The texture is viscous and fat, with savory and bitter notes - so much personality. Enjoy chilled.

Note: We can ship this sake, but due to the nature of shipping, please note that fluctuations in temperature can affect the freshness of the drink, and we will always recommend picking up locally when possible. Please proceed with shipping at your own risk.
