Takara Sake USA is situated in the area of Berkeley, CA that was once known as OCEAN
VIEW, a diverse neighborhood overlooking the San Francisco Bay. Inspired by such, Sho Chiku Bai Ocean View Junmai Sake is a new style of sake that is brewed with the unconventional choice of white koji, which lends to heightened levels of citric acid. As a result, Sho Chiku Bai Ocean View Junmai Sake is bold and refreshing on the palate, and easily paired with a variety of foods but especially well with seafood.

Lightly tart apple and pear lead the delicate, nuanced nose. As it warms in the glass, more savory notes emerge—first sweet white miso, then rolled oats, custard, and finally brie cheese. The crisp, mouthwatering palate offers tangy green apple, lemon rind, wet stones, paper and cream of wheat. Even the empty glass brings pleasure with aromas of toast and white truffle.

Recommended Temperature: Chilled (50˚F) to warm

Food Pairing Suggestions: Raw oysters, scallops, grilled
lobster tail, steamed mussels.
