Manotsuru Demon Slayer Sake

This Onikoroshi ("Demon Slayer") sake is very dry and medium-bodied, with tantalizing fruit flavors and a pleasant nuttiness on the mid-palate. Subtle mineral notes highlight the very dry finish. Best served slightly chilled, it pairs wonderfully with all types of meat.
