Product details
Perfected after three years of research and development, IMA takes saké into a whole new realm, one formerly occupied solely by white wines. IMA is a sake that has been specifically brewed to pair with premium oysters. Similar to white wines, this Junmai’s sweet and sour taste pairs ideally with the flavor of oysters. Unlike its western counterpart, however, the umami further enhances the oyster flavor, while the malic acid from the specially produced saké yeast serves to lighten the palate and enables one to reap the health benefits of nutrient-rich oysters. A completely new concept saké, IMA is the perfect alternative to Chablis or Sancerre wines.
This sake features fresh fruit and slight floral notes with a touch of sea breeze salinity. Its mouthfeel is clean and slightly briny. The tasting notes reveal a refreshing fruity aroma upfront, followed by cleansing acidity and a slight briny, mineral finish. The refreshing acidity and hint of sweetness are reminiscent of Vouvray or Gewurztraminer.
