This is the first and only Japanese vermouth! There is a long history of adding herbs and flavoring to Sake in Japan, and this keeps with tradition by fortifying Junmai Sake with rice shochu. The nose is fruity and yeasty with notes of grapefruit, peach, guava, lavender, and plum; on the palate, the sake base is immediately evident with bass notes of rice, yeast, and faint plum. Yuzu and sansho peppercorn brighten things up, while an undercurrent of yomogi provides earthy grapefruit from beginning to end.
