This distinctive sake has a full body and richness in flavors like macadamia nuts, banana bread and undertones of chocolate. The full flavor and earthy complexity pair well with a variety of dishes. You can sip on it before dinner or unwind with a glass following a long but rewarding day at the office. Sho Chiku Bai Organic Nama will quickly become a regular part of your routine. Brighten your evening by enjoying this unique beverage, and feel good about the green organic elements we use to create the best Nama sake. Unlike other sake types, Sho Chiku Bai Organic Nama is micro-filtered rather than being pasteurized by heat. While high temperatures can change the subtle flavors of sake, the micro-filtration process retains the original nama (young and fresh) flavors. It is rich and savory with comforting aromas and is brewed in Berkeley with premium organic Calrose rice polished to 60%. This junmai sake is one of the best food pairing sake along with Sho Chiku Bai Classic Junmai. This sake is enjoyable on its own or with dishes such as cold buckwheat noodles, sushi (including mackerel), broiled lobster (without butter), or cold, thinly sliced smoked duck. It’s also a versatile sake for cheese pairing, taking on the character of a wheat biscuit when served with brie, manchego, gruyere or cambozola.

Region: California

California as a wine producing region has grown in size and importance considerably over the past couple of centuries, and today is the proud producer of more than ninety percent of the United States' wines. Indeed, if California was a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine in the world, with a vast range of vineyards covering almost half a million acres. The secret to California's success as a wine region has a lot to do with the high quality of its soils, and the fact that it has an extensive Pacific coastline which perfectly tempers the blazing sunshine it experiences all year round. The winds coming off the ocean cool the vines, and the natural valleys and mountainsides which make up most of the state's wine regions make for ideal areas in which to cultivate a variety of high quality grapes.

Country: United States

Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.
