Kawatsuru Junmai Ginjo Olive Sake is a unique expression from the Kawatsuru Sake Brewery, located in the Kagawa Prefecture of Japan. This sake is crafted using the traditional Junmai Ginjo method, which involves polishing the rice to at least 60% of its original size, allowing for a more refined and aromatic profile. The addition of olives during the brewing process imparts a distinctive flavor, creating a harmonious balance between the fruity and floral notes typical of Ginjo sake and the subtle, savory nuances of olives. The sake offers a smooth and elegant palate with hints of green apple, melon, and a touch of umami, making it an excellent pairing with Mediterranean dishes, seafood, and light appetizers.
