This sake speaks for itself, the perfect choice for a casual sushi picnic. Amabuki's I LOVE SUSHI Junmai acts as a palate cleanser with its dry finish, soft acidity and moderate umami. The most mellow of the Amabuki lineup, using the rare, local Saga no Hana rice.

The cutest cup and a really fun and easygoing brew as well.

Profile:

Established 1688 in the Southern island of Kyushu region, Amabuki Brewery has been producing sake earnestly for over 325 years. They primarily use locally harvested Saga rice and semi-hard underground water to create unique, high grade sake. Their specialty - a new style of earthy, complex sake using flower yeasts- is a combination of their skill, creativity and hard work, as well as their participation in the tiny, but passionate, Hana Kobo (flower yeast) Association.
