Sake-Set Izakaya Set

Sake Set “IZAKAYA – Japan’s Everyday Enjoyment”  

Three authentic sakes for relaxed evenings and hearty dishes  

In Japan, an “Izakaya” is a casual tavern where people gather after work to share small dishes and enjoy good sake together — relaxed, flavorful, and social. This set captures exactly that atmosphere: three distinctive sakes from different regions of Japan, perfectly suited to classic Izakaya-style dishes such as yakitori, tempura, ramen, okonomiyaki, or grilled fish.  

A harmonious trio of fruit, umami, and balance – ideal for sharing, tasting, and casual enjoyment. 

Included in the set:  

RIHAKU “Wandering Poet” (Shimane) – 720 ml  

A soft, full-bodied Junmai Ginjo named after the legendary Chinese poet Li Bai (Rihaku). Aromas of pear, melon, and anise unfold into a smooth palate with mild sweetness and lively acidity. A versatile companion to tempura, udon, or pork dishes.  

Style: Fruity & mellow, medium dry  

Rice: Yamada Nishiki (55% pol.)  

Serving temp.: 10–15 °C  

YUKI NO BOSHA “Yamahai Black” (Akita) – 720 ml  

An elegant Yamahai-style sake with delicate fruit notes and deep umami. Flavors of white peach, lychee, and lime blossom meet a soft, creamy texture and clean, dry finish. When warmed, it becomes even smoother and richer – excellent with noodles, grilled fish, or vegetable dishes.  

Style: Dry, umami-rich  

Rice: Akita Sake Komachi, Yamada Nishiki (65% pol.)

Serving temp.: 10–15 °C or 35–45 °C  

MASUIZUMI “Karakuchi” (Toyama) – 720 ml  

The brewmaster’s favorite for everyday enjoyment. “Karakuchi” means dry – and this sake delivers exactly that: crisp, refreshing, and light, with notes of apple, hay, and steamed rice. A perfect everyday sake to pair with sushi, street food, or Izakaya-style dishes.  

Style: Light & fresh, dry  

Rice: Yamada Nishiki (60% pol.)  

Serving temp.: 10–15 °C or 35–45 °C   


The perfect companion for relaxed evenings and casual dining – just like in a real Izakaya.
