Matcha Sake n22 70cl - Sakari

This Matcha Sake n22 from Sakari offers a subtle balance between the typical softness of sake and the herbaceous character of matcha. On the nose it reveals notes of finely powdered green tea, fresh vegetal hints and a touch of white flowers; the texture is silky, with a light sweetness that doesn’t overpower. The acidity is measured, a pleasant savory note is present, and the overall structure keeps the sip harmonious and linear, with a gentle persistence that recalls an umami finish.

On the palate the sip is clean and rounded: the matcha’s herbaceous component integrates with the alcoholic softness, adding depth without weighing it down. Excellent served cold or at cellar temperature in small sips, it pairs well with delicate preparations such as sushi and fish dishes, but also stands up to tea-based desserts and light pastries. The ideal temperature enhances delicacy and freshness. Recommended for those seeking an original proposition, to be savored slowly to appreciate its balance and nuances.
