Akagisan Sake
The name “Akagisan” was inspired by a song in a play about Japan’s version of Robin Hood. Like the play’s hero, Chujiro Kunisada, or Britain’s Robin Hood, Akagisan Junmai Ginjo is a thief, but a thief of the heart. Brewed with the crystal clear underflow from Mt. Akagi, this dry sake is silky smooth and ends with a pristine finish. It pairs wonderfully with a wide array of foods, and might be your favorite part of the meal to be honest! The refreshingly dry apple and pear flavors will soon have you feeling like one of Robin Hood’s Merry men, so steal from the bottle and give to yourself with Akagisan Junmai Ginjo.
