Tanaka 1789 X Chartier Blend 002 Junmai Daiginjo 2018 - 500 ml

Product description

Master blender François Chartier and toji Morikawa work closely together to change the process of making sake at Tanaka 1789.

Their goal: to develop the perfect final product to be used for making the best blends. Each blend is different in texture, flavor, color and, of course, aroma: making room for individuality.

Here, Chartier has crafted what is admittedly a "sexier" 2018 vintage Blend 002. He has discovered the ideal harmony between Tanaka's new Chartier-style sakes, which offer a higher natural acidity than is typically seen in the sake world. In this case, he provides an exotic aromatic profile and a fruit bomb style in mouth, reminiscent of the best Pinot Gris from Alsace. The result is an expressive and flavourful sake that explodes into a symphony of flavours from the first sip.
