Product details
Wakaze Ispahan Rose Sake is a unique and innovative creation from Wakaze, a contemporary sake brewery founded in 2016 with the mission to revolutionize traditional sake brewing by incorporating global flavors and techniques. This particular sake is inspired by the classic French dessert, Ispahan, which combines the delicate flavors of rose, lychee, and raspberry. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, Wakaze infuses their premium junmai sake with natural extracts of these fruits and flowers, resulting in a harmonious blend that pays homage to both Japanese brewing traditions and French patisserie artistry.
On the nose, Wakaze Ispahan Rose Sake presents an enticing bouquet of floral rose notes intertwined with the sweet and tropical aroma of lychee, complemented by subtle hints of tart raspberry. The palate is treated to a smooth and well-balanced experience, where the natural sweetness of the fruits is perfectly offset by the sake's inherent acidity, culminating in a refreshing and clean finish. This versatile sake pairs exceptionally well with a variety of dishes. It enhances the flavors of light appetizers such as prosciutto-wrapped melon or goat cheese salads, and complements seafood dishes like seared scallops or sushi. For dessert, it serves as a delightful accompaniment to raspberry macarons or rose-flavored pastries, creating a cohesive and indulgent dining experience.
