| NV Marumoto Hou Hou Shu Sparkling Sake Honjozo-shu Junmai-shu | 300 ML | $12.99 | This is a new addition to the Marumoto brewery's repertoire, a delightfully unusual and memorable semi-sparkling junmaishu. It has been brewed using no additional ingredients beyond water and a delicious, slightly sweet sake rice. Fizzing when opened with natural carbon, this is a sake comparable to fine champagne, although rather than shaking it, the bottle should be gently upended before opening. Its taste will come as a very pleasant surprise to the drinker and is very light, with only 8% alcohol by volume. |
