Product details
Naraman Muroka Junmai Sake is a celebrated sake, having won gold medals for three consecutive years at The U.S. National Sake Appraisal. It offers a subtle melon aroma with a perfect balance of sweet and dry flavors, making it complex and enticing enough to prompt a second glass. Serving it lukewarm enhances its nuanced flavors, and pairing it with grilled fish or sashimi adds an extra layer of enjoyment. This sake is distinct for not being charcoal filtered and is pasteurized only once, preserving its original taste and aroma.
The term "Muroka Binhiire" refers to the sake being untouched by charcoal filtration, maintaining its natural flavor and amber color. "Binhiire" denotes the process of pasteurization in a glass bottle, with Naraman Muroka Binhiire being pasteurized just once before shipping. This method allows the sake to retain its original, mellow melon-like taste with a slight tartness. While it's delicious when served chilled, warming it to 110 to 120°F (43 to 49°C) reveals hidden aromas, offering a new experience. Naraman is an ideal sake to pair with a variety of savory dishes.
