Sake in Review : 東西 美玉 Tozai Living Jewel

July 21st, 2010

Tozai Living Jewel is a Junmai grade sake that is made in Kyoto, Japan.   This entry is named after the koi fish on the label which Japan considers living jewels.   The sake has a nice slightly fruity nose.   First taste was smooth with  tangy fruit flavors without being overly stated.   The first sip was mildly acidic and had a slight bite on the back end.    This sake should be served chilled, can be sipped alone or served with a wide array of food.
