“This sake has an elegant nose, glossy texture, and an array of flavours including pineapple, honeydew melon, vanilla yoghurt, rice pudding, and nutmeg.”
Miku is brewed using locally sourced ‘Koshitanrei’ sake-specific rice. In line with the brewery’s commitment to sustainability, oyster shells (instead of pesticides, herbicides, or insecticides) are employed in the rice cultivation process. Best enjoyed in a white wine glass.
