KURA 'CELLAR' AGED JUNMAI SAKE 375ml (2022 DOUBLE BARREL)
KURA 'CELLAR' AGED JUNMAI SAKE 375ml (2022 DOUBLE BARREL)
The latest vintage of KURA - this time we’ve done the double!
This 2022 brew has undergone ambient ageing; initially in white wine burgundy oak for 12 months, followed by another 12 months in red wine burgundy oak. After two years in barrel, the sake is filtered, pasteurised and finally matured in bottle - until now!
A bright, vibrant barrel aged sake: with notes of fig, almond & candied citrus.
Crisp acidity - enjoy lightly chilled with steak, cheese or dark chocolate.
