Homare Strawberry Nigorizake 8% 300mL
🍶 Experience a delightful twist on traditional sake with Homare Strawberry Nigorizake. This luscious blend combines the rich, creamy texture of nigori sake with the fresh, sweet-tart taste of natural strawberry juice for a refreshing and unique flavor.
Crafted by Aizu Homare Brewery in Kitakata, Fukushima, Japan, this sake reflects the expertise of a brewery known for its diverse range of sake and liqueurs since 1918.
The profile is semi-thick and semi-rich, offering notes of strawberry yogurt underpinned by a mild creaminess and a touch of acidity from the nigori style. The natural 'funk' from the sake adds depth and character.
At 8% ABV, it’s smooth and approachable, making it a versatile choice for aperitif or digestif without the sharp alcohol bite.
