Special Offer on Selected Feature Items
During the campaign period, the following featured sake will be available at 10% off.
These Kikunotsukasa bottles were featured at the Australian Sake Festival Melbourne and Sydney, and are now available through Sake Selector as a special release.
Kikunotsukasa Junmai Daiginjo Tezukuri Shichifukujin
On the nose, this sake presents mellow, refreshing aromas, including soft notes of vanilla and white flowers, with hints of green apple and melon. On the palate, an initial gentle effervescence and sweetness. Its elegant, crisp, and clean structure, along with its subtle fruity and umami notes and crisp finish, make it a wonderful match for a variety of modern Australian dishes, particularly those that feature fresh seafood.
We recommend serving this chilled in a white wine glass. Suggested pairings include: Australian kingfish crudo or sashimi, pan-seared or barbecued scallops, fresh king prawns, grilled barramundi with a citrus or herb butter sauce, grilled chicken with asparagus, and battered zucchini flowers.
Kikunotsukasa Shinboshi
On the nose, this sake presents soft notes of strawberries, vanilla and melon, with subtle grassy, grainy hints. The palate opens with a soft sweetness that is balanced well by a structured and gentle acidity, and mineral undertones. Its balance of sweetness and acidity makes it highly adaptable in terms of food pairing. This sake has a wonderfully smooth mouthfeel and a pleasant, lingering aftertaste.
We recommend serving this chilled in a white wine glass. Suggested pairings include: Fresh natural oysters, grilled chicken or prawn skewers, barbequed pork loin, cured meats or charcuterie boards, asparagus wrapped in prosciutto, salt-crusted snapper, and pumpkin & avocado salad.
Summer Holiday Gift: Mini Can Giveaway
To make the holiday season even more enjoyable, we’re offering a special gift during the campaign period.
For every $100 spent (GST included) on Sake Selector during the campaign period, you’ll receive one complimentary mini can, selected from:
Nihonsakari Nama Genshu Junmai Ginjo 200ml (red can)
Nihonsakari Nama Genshu Junmai Daiginjo 200ml (gold can)
Both the Junmai Ginjo (red can) and Junmai Daiginjo (gold can) are Nama (unpasteurised) Genshu (undiluted) sakes, meaning they share a bold and fresh character with a higher alcohol content of roughly 16.5%. While both are noted for their rich, fruity aromas and smooth, creamy mouthfeel, they differ in refinement and flavour depth; the red can offers a more robust flavour profile with vibrant notes of melon, mango, and a distinct savoury umami. In contrast, the gold can offers a slightly more elegant nose of white peach and jasmine, a milky sweetness, and a silkier texture. Both sakes pair excellently with rich, fatty foods due to their undiluted strength, though their distinct profiles suit different flavours.
The bold, savoury Junmai Ginjo (red) is ideal for grilled meats, barbecue, and salty snacks like blue cheese or cured meats, while the Junmai Daiginjo (gold) works well alongside dishes like mushroom risotto, soft cheeses, or light seafood options.
Serve chilled, or enjoy them on the rocks for a more refreshing Summer option.
It’s our way of saying thank you and helping you discover even more sake this summer.
Enjoy the summer holidays with Sake Selector, and don’t miss this seasonal campaign filled with refreshing bottles, special offers, and a little extra to celebrate the season.
