Shikizakura Shimotsuke Toji Imai Shouhei Muroka Genshu Junmai Daiginjo
This undiluted (genshu) and unfiltered (muroka) Junmai Daiginjo offers a rich, full-bodied profile with gentle notes of ripe banana and tropical fruit. Smooth and well-balanced, it begins with subtle sweetness, followed by umami, crisp acidity, and a clean dry finish.

Its depth makes it excellent with flavourful dishes such as tuna or salmon, creamy or herb-based sauces, charcuterie, cheese, grilled pork, and even beef or tuna tartare. Enjoy in a wine glass or a wide-mouthed guinomi to appreciate its robust character.

Gold Award in the Light / Dry category at the 2025 Australian Sake Awards.

Shikisakura Junmai Ginjo ARUSHIROI
Shikisakura Junmai Ginjo ARUSHIROI offers a complex, robust profile with aromas of white flowers, vanilla, stonefruit, and cooked rice. The palate is smooth and firm, with mellow acidity, gentle sweetness, and a savoury backbone. Notes of vanilla, grapefruit, melon, and rice lead to a clean finish with a light, lingering sweetness.

Versatile and food-friendly, it pairs well with roast chicken, pork or beef, shellfish such as lobster and crab, BBQ prawns, seafood skewers, tofu dishes, seafood hotpot, risotto, and soft washed-rind cheeses. A small wine glass or tasting glass works well to highlight both the aroma and the rich flavour.

Winner of the Recommended Food Matching Award in the Mushroom Pizza Pairing category at the 2025 Australian Sake Awards.
