Tasting notes

Fresh, ripe strawberries take centre stage, layered with hints of strawberry jam, sweet orange, and a touch of fresh mint. The palate is lush and fruity, balancing natural strawberry sweetness with bright acidity and the gentle bitterness of Junmai sake, leading to a smooth, refreshing finish. Made by infusing locally grown Ebina strawberries into Izumibashi's handcrafted Junmai sake, it captures the pure flavour of fresh fruit while retaining the elegance of sake.
