FLASHSALE
KOSHI NO KANBAI Junmai Ginjo Sai 720ml
Regular price
₱1,475.00
The vibrant blue bottle of "Sai" evokes the image of a pure flavor. Simply placing it on the table creates a bright and vibrant presence, adding a touch of color to any occasion, making it the perfect sake for intimate parties, cherry blossom viewing, outdoor activities, and more. The intricate pattern engraved on the label symbolizes Kamedago, the home of the Echigo winter plum, surrounded by the Agano River, the Shinano River, and the Koagano River that connects the two. The golden motif evokes the image of Kamedago, shining with bountiful harvests, while expressing gratitude and respect for the homeland's abundant, quality water and low-temperature environment.
TASTING NOTES
The overall taste is well-balanced, with a smooth, light creaminess, and is softer than the dryness of the traditional Koshi no Kanbai. It gives the impression of a mixture of elegance and mellowness, with a clear aroma derived from the rice that comes from the pure rice type, with notes of freshly cooked rice and freshly pounded mochi along with banana cream, mangosteen, whipped cream and almond milk, a faint scent of cherry blossom leaves and honeysuckle flowers, a mineral scent reminiscent of the stones and rocks at the bottom of a clear stream, and a faint scent of moss growing on the rocks.
FOOD PAIRING:
It enhances the rich flavor of your food while still maintaining a creamy texture. Perfect for Ayu whole sushi, Grilled eel, Megani (scented box crab), Tuna poke, Camembert cheese.
RECOMMENDED: If you want to appreciate this soft, creamy, and well-balanced flavor, it's best enjoyed at around 15%. If you want to add the freshness you imagine from the bottle color, 10-12% is also acceptable.
ABV: 15% / Rice Polish: 55% / SMV: +2 / Rice Variety: Gohyakumangoku, Yamadanishiki rice / Origin: Niigata Prefecture, Japan
We accept all major credit cards. Payments are securely processed through Paymongo. GCash and bank transfer are also available.
Orders placed before 5 PM are eligible for next-day delivery within Metro Manila.
Delivery is free for orders over ₱4,500 in Metro Manila. We also offer nationwide shipping on select products.
Storage
Premium sakes should be kept refrigerated to preserve their delicate flavors and aromas. Only Futsushu (table sake) can be stored in a cool, dark place without refrigeration.
Serving Temperature
Most premium sakes, like Ginjo and Daiginjo, are best enjoyed chilled. Fuller-bodied sakes, such as Junmai, Honjozo, and Futsushu, can be warmed.
Once Opened
After opening, keep sake in the fridge and enjoy within 1-2 weeks for the best flavor.
Glassware
For the best aromatic experience, a wine glass is recommended to fully appreciate the complexity of premium sakes. Traditional sake cups (ochoko) are also suitable but won’t enhance the aromatics as much.

Why choose sake from us?
We focus on Junmai sake. Clean, honest, and brewed with only rice, water, yeast and koji. We work directly with brewers in Japan, visiting their breweries, tasting directly from the source, and choosing only what we believe is worth sharing. Every bottle reflects real relationships and deliberate curation.
What does sake pair well with?
There are no hard rules. Sake pairs beautifully with everything from seafood and vegetables to grilled meats and cheese. We recommend experimenting. You’ll be surprised how sake naturally fits. Let flavor guide you.
How should I store my sake?
For premium sake, we recommend refrigeration to maintain optimal freshness and flavor. Once opened, it’s best enjoyed within 1-2 weeks, though unopened premium sake can be stored in the fridge for several months. Standard sake can be stored in a cool, dark place.
