Sharaku Junmaishu

Miyazumimeijo (宮泉銘醸), the maker of Sharaku, was founded as a branch of the long-established Hanaharu Sake Brewery (花春酒造) in Aizu. The Sharaku brand was taken over by Miyazumimeijo in 2007 when Higashiyama Sake Brewery (東山酒造), also in Aizu Wakamatsu, went out of business.

The classic Sharaku Junmaishu  (冩樂 純米酒) is a well-balanced sake with a fresh fruity aroma, a clean, crisp mouthfeel, and a nice sharpness. Sharaku is also basically a single pasteurization after bottling without tank storage. The sake is then immediately refrigerated to prevent oxidation and maintain high sake quality, thus ensuring a high degree of freshness.

Because of its refreshing taste, we recommend drinking it cold rather than hot. Even if you do warm it, it is best to drink it at human body temperature. Because of its well-balanced and very mild flavor, it can be enjoyed as a drink with food, as it goes well with any meal.
