Sweet, fragrant, and citrusy, the Ippin Yuzu Sake is a delicious and refreshing drink. It pairs great with grilled food, or drunk on its own.
TASTING NOTES FROM THE CURATOR:
The Yuzu Sake is Ippin’s signature “limoncello” sake. It uses two types of premium yuzu, giving it a wonderfully zesty characteristic. It’s sweet and fragrant, with an ABV of 8%. It’s refreshing to drink, with a brilliant citrus flavor that balances beautifully with its sake dimensions.
PREPARATION AND PAIRINGS
Serve your Ippin Yuzu Sake chilled or on the rocks, and pair with grilled food like teppanyaki. It also works well with sushi and Japanese omelets.
STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
Store unopened sake upright in a dark place, at a cool room temperature, ideally at about 12 to 15°C. If you wish to drink your sake chilled, place it in the refrigerator the night before consumption. Opened bottles should always be kept refrigerated. If you later wish to drink your sake at room temperature, place the portion you want into a small pouring vessel and leave that out on the counter at least 3 hours before consumption. Generally, sake should be consumed within one year of the bottling date, but when properly stored, it can survive up to 2 years. An open bottle of sake must be consumed within 2 to 3 weeks.
