About this bottle
Kitajima Sake Brewery was established in 1805 and is one of Japan's oldest and most respected sake breweries, situated in the beautiful Shiga Prefecture near lake Biwa. Their highly crafted range is unique and distinctive with a palate that is much richer and fruitier than the average sake.
Named after the great Biwa Lake in the Shiga prefecture, the largest lake in Japan, The Whale of Biwa Lake Sake is made from Koji Rice and is polished at 70%, pasteurised and non-filtered. This Junmai sake is rich, fruity and delicious. The distinctive richness of raw koji-rice lingers on the palate and gives way to notes of plum, banana and pear.
