Tasting Notes

Gentle aromas of pine and Japanese pear appear first. The texture is pure and precise, guided by a cool mineral line.

Subtle notes of Japanese pear bring freshness, with a light effervescence that leaves a clean, lingering finish.

This sake pairs beautifully with light dishes such as white peach and mozzarella salad, Chinese steamed whole fish, and corn kakiage tempura.

about narai sankei

The sake rice, Sankei-Nishiki, is a descendant of Miyama-Nishiki and a relatively new variety registered in 2020. Named for the “blessings of the Shinshu mountains,” it is cultivated for us by Farm Ichimaru, rather than sourced through distributors, ensuring traceable, hands-on care from field to brew — a rarity among sake producers.
A gentle scent of pine and Japanese pear on the nose, followed by a refreshing purity that is carried by a subtle mineral freshness.

Our brewery is nestled in the beautiful townscape of Narai-juku, a historic and well-preserved town in Nagano Prefecture. narai uses the fresh mountain water of nearby Kiso Valley, flowing from an altitude of over 1,000m. The water is characterized by its clarity and smooth, rounded texture, brought about by a rare water hardness of less than 25.

We hope you enjoy narai, a sake that expresses the beautiful nature of Nagano.
