Out of stockSenkin Modern Muku is the brewery’s flagship brand, brewed 100% with local Sakura city Yamada Nishiki rice. Part of their “modern” series (meaning that it was brewed with modern methods), the brewery touts this as their daily drinking sake - one that fits in your class as comfortably as wearing a clean white shirt. Muku, meaning pure or innocent, refers to a lack of excessive embellishment in the sake. It has a sharp, vibrantly fruity flavor with a well-balanced umami heft, and the brewery encourages drinkers to try enjoying their sake out of Boudreaux wine glasses to maximize the sensory potential of the brew. Food Pairings: Scallop with grapefruit salad, mozzarella and tomato salad, insalata di mare (Italian Seafood Salad), seafood aspic, sea urchin mousse, poached white asparagus, sashimi of thinly sliced white flesh fish with ponzu, shrimp cake with lemon garnish
