Sake
IWA 5 Assemblage 5 | Junmai Daiginjo Genshu - 720 ml.
Available at Mizumi Sushi in Encino, a refined Junmai Daiginjo Genshu with elegant aromas of pear, raspberry, plum, rose, and jasmine, finishing with silky warmth, dry minerality, and notes of citron, white pepper, and licorice.
Product Description
The aromas of pear, raspberry and plum blend with the notes of rose and jasmine. Such a complexity is heightened by the spicy freshness of pine and geranium. The contrast between palate and nose is engaging. There is a palpable duality of the pure well rounded fruity/floral aromatics and the archaic tactile presence of a gentle astringency. The silky and warm opening dissolves into a dry minerality and lingers with a vibrant touch of citron, white pepper and licorice.
About This Dish
This sake is perfect for guests who appreciate complexity, texture, and a long refined finish. The palate begins silky and warm, then develops into a dry mineral expression with a gentle astringency that adds structure. Notes of citron, white pepper, and licorice linger beautifully, creating a memorable pairing with omakase, sashimi, premium nigiri, seafood, and delicate Japanese dishes.
