Tokusen
Tokusen turns the tables on the usual honjozo style with a lighter, more fruity character.
- Honjozo
- Masumi No. 7 Yeast
- Rice polished to 60% remaining
- 15% alcohol
Soft aromas of banana and apple lead to mild sweetness bound by acidity finishing light and clean. Pair with Japanese comfort food like sushi, salt-grilled fish and yakitori.
