Wakatake Onikoroshi Junmai Daiginjo Sake (BTL 720ml)

This bottle is a Sake Gumi Selection! It was featured in "Onikoroshi- 'Demon Slayer' Sake" in November 2024

You may have seen or tried this iconic Wakatake Junmai Daiginjo sake before. While I often introduce rare or unsual sakes for Sake Gumi, I also like to feature sakes that are representative of the theme and are famous for a reason. While this Onikoroshi doesn’t hit you over the head with dryness, it is clean. Aromas of whipped cream and rice greet you, and as you sip, enjoy flavors of melon cream soda. All of this ends with a crisp ending that we loved with raw oysters and a sunomono salad at our latest staff gathering at Hog Island Oyster Company. Enjoy chilled. For extra decadence, pour a teaspoon of this sake directly into a freshly shucked oyster and sip (as shown in the photo)!
