Nanbubijin Awa Sake Sparkling 720ml

Nanbubijin Awa Sake Sparkling is an elegant Japanese sparkling sake (awasake) from the historic Nanbu Bijin Brewery in Iwate Prefecture, Japan. This premium sake undergoes a secondary fermentation in the bottle — a technique similar to traditional Champagne production — resulting in natural effervescence, delicate bubbles, and a lively palate. Its refined ginjo-aroma, uplifting freshness, and balanced umami finish make it perfect for celebrations, aperitifs, or pairing with light cuisine.

Tasting Profile

• Aroma: Fresh and fragrant with delicate ginjo notes (pear, apple, and light floral hints).

• Palate: Crisp and effervescent with a refreshing balance of sweet fruit and rice character, supported by subtle umami.
• Finish: Clean, vibrant, and refreshing — perfect as a celebratory sip or accompaniment to light foods.

Food Pairing

• Sushi & sashimi — enhances fresh seafood flavors.

• Oysters & shellfish — bright carbonation cuts through richness.

• Cheese & light appetizers — balances both savory and creamy elements.

• Aperitif — great chilled to start the meal.

Serving Suggestions

• Best served chilled (6–10 °C) to showcase its lively bubbles and refreshing aroma.
