If you enjoy the classic Ozeki Karatamba, youll adore this single-pasteurized version! Most sake is pasteurized twice to be more shelf stable, but pasteurizing only once allows the sake to retain fresh-from-the-tap liveliness. Experience the characteristic dryness of the beloved honjozo sake with a more crisp, refreshing and clean profile. Serve this brilliant blue bottle chilled alongside oysters, soba noodles or lemon chicken.
