STYLE: Junmai Ginjo Nigori Genshu: Made with only rice, water, yeast & koji with the rice milled to 60%, it is cask strength and roughly filtered. TASTING NOTES: This old style, roughly filtered sake is an amazing experience. Pearl offers notes of vanilla and pineapple with banana, coconut, and anise rounding out a creamy body. PAIRING NOTES: Pearl balances spicy dishes like Thai and Latin yet is a perfect match for rich chocolate desserts, fresh raspberries, and strawberries. Enjoy with steak, barbecue, and hearty dishes. Pull together an evening with spicy barbecue, crisp grilled vegetables, wild rice, and a layered chocolate cake with raspberry sauce drizzled liberally. Or simply enjoy Pearl on its own.
