Akafuji Sake 72cl

The Akafuji Sake, presented in a 72 cl bottle, is a refined example of traditional Japanese sake. The name "Akafuji" is inspired by the famous Mount Fuji, often referred to as “Fuji-san” in Japan, known for its snowy peak that glows at sunset. This evokes an image of purity and freshness found in this spirit.

Produced following ancient traditional techniques, Akafuji Sake is made from the fermentation of rice, which is carefully selected and milled to remove the tougher outer layers, thus preserving the tender, starch-rich core. This process contributes to creating a sake with a delicate flavor and a subtle aroma that evokes notes of white flowers and fresh melon.

The appearance of Akafuji Sake is crystal clear and bright, with a slight viscosity that confirms its quality. On the palate, it offers a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity, with a slight umami aftertaste that complements the sweeter and fruitier notes.

Ideal to be served cold, it pairs wonderfully with both traditional Japanese dishes, such as sushi and sashimi, and more modern international cuisine. Thanks to its versatility, Akafuji Sake can also be used in cocktails to add a touch of refinement and originality to drinks.

In conclusion, every sip of Akafuji Sake promises a unique sensory experience, making every occasion a delightful moment to share. A must for sake enthusiasts and for those who wish to explore the traditions of Japan through its most authentic flavors.
