HAKUSHIKA'S JAPANESE ORCHARD JAPANESE PEAR

Hakushika's Japanese Orchard Japanese Pear was inspired by one of Japan's most favorite native fruits : the Japanese pear. The Japanese pear (Pyrus pyrifolia) is prized for its refreshing, almost thirst-quenching properties and is traditionally enjoyed fresh right off the tree. Hakushika's Japanese Pear is an exciting new type of natural flavor- infused sake and contains no added sulphites or gluten. Imported from Nishinomiya, Japan.

Type: Junmai with Natural Flavor
Alc/Vol: 10%
Rice Polishing Rate: 70%
Nihonshudo (Sake Meter): -25 (sweet)

Food Pairing:

Excellent for matching with cheese (provolone, parmesan, camembert), roasted turkey, pork (ham, grilled pork chops), sautéed vegetables, and fresh seafood (salmon, ahi tuna). Also a superb choice paired with cinnamon, honey, and vanilla flavored desserts.

Tasting Notes:

Crisp and clean with a mild green tartness, Hakushika's Japanese Pear has a subtle autumn harvest sweetness and refreshingly cool quality particular to the Japanese pear.

About the Fruit: Japanese Pear

The Japanese pear (Pyrus pyrifolia) has long been a favorite fruit in Japan. Unlike the bulbous "western pear" which is usually eaten after turning soft, the Japanese pear is round and more like an apple best enjoyed while it is still firm. A native of Japan, the Japanese pear is known for its refreshing, almost thirst-quenching properties.
