Nama Junmai Sake 'Blue Door'

Brewery: Brooklyn Kura • State: New York  •  Rice: Calrose and Yamada Nishiki rice milled to 70% •  Sake Meter Value: +2 • Acidity: 1.8•  ABV: 17%

• Serve chilled and enjoy soon after opening
• Pairs well with richer dishes like grilled tuna steaks, smoky cheeses, or steak frites. (Or even just frites!)

Named for the iconic entrance to the Brooklyn Kura taproom, the ‘Blue Door’ is fermented slightly warmer than their ginjo sake making it stout, earthy and dry. It is left unpasteurized (nama) giving it life and vibrancy.
