New Sakes from TY KU

Premium Asian Wine & Spirits Company, TY KU, has just launched a Junmai Ginjo sake (less than 10% of all sakes) that has been specially brewed with no additives or preservatives. Like all of TY KU’s products their sake is calorie-conscious with packaging that simply can’t be beat.

Their sake works well on its owned (chilled) or in cocktails and utilizes –
- 60% polished specialty sake rice, milled on-site
-Pristine, iron-free, naturally filtered water
-Koji made by hand in the only cedar-lined koji room in the U.S.

The result is a smooth sake with a flavor profile described as “peach on the nose and a subtle hint of spice underneath. Soft and creamy with deep viscosity that coats the palate resulting in a long finish which ended delightfully crisp. Depth and body pairs well with lighter Western fare (grilled white meats and cooed fish), yet is delicate enough to complement Asian cuisine.”
