Product details
Konteki Tears of Dawn is a masterfully crafted daiginjo sake that combines tradition and elegance. Brewed using the same meticulous process as Konteki Pearls of Simplicity, this sake incorporates a touch of distilled alcohol to elevate its aromatics and refine its texture. The name Konteki translates to "dew drops of the earth," inspired by the glistening mountain dew at sunrise near the brewery in Higashiyama, or "eastern hill." This poetic imagery is beautifully mirrored in the sake’s exquisite flavor and balance.
On the palate, Tears of Dawn unveils lush tropical notes of banana, anise seed, and earthy truffle. These rich flavors cascade through a full-bodied profile, concluding with a velvety and dangerously smooth finish. Perfectly suited for culinary exploration, it pairs beautifully with braised pork ribs, fresh oysters, or the creamy depth of smoked gouda cheese. Elevate your sake experience with this sophisticated and versatile daiginjo.
