Wakabotan "Hinohikari 50" Junmai Ginjo [720ml]

Wakabotan is a sake brand from a Sanwa Shurui Co., a company more well known for producing iichiko shochu made from barley. These versatile vacuum-distilled spirits have been a staple in the Rule of Thirds' bar program since opening in 2020, but we hadn't heard of their sake-based origin!  Wakabotan "Hinohikari 50" Junmai Ginjo Junmai Ginjo / Sanwa Shurui Co, Oita The experience: "Hinohikari" is the name of the rice, a local Oita table varietal meant for eating. It's an ordinary rice rarely used for brewing. We love the subtle sweetness paired with a hook of acidity and texture coming from this interesting choice of rice. Serve chilled. Process: Sokujo  ABV: 18% Ingredients: 50% polished hinohikari rice Storage: keep in a cool, dark place
