Sho Chiku Bai which means Pine, Bamboo, and Plum is a Jumai Sake from Berkeley, California.    American made sakes are becoming more widely known but this is only the second one that I thought was worth drinking.   This is Nama (unpasteurized) sake made from certified organically grown rice.   Pouring the first glass I could smell a slight mint aroma.   The first tastes revealed a clean, dry, and slight acidic experience.   It is slightly sweet without being fruity and has a slight tail on the back end.   This sake can be served with a wide range of food and should always be served chilled.
