Hakushika 'Japanese Orchard - Pineapple' Junmai Sake 200mL Hyogo

Tangy and zingy with a hint of tropical sun-drenched sweetness, Hakushika's Pineapple has a vibrant and juicy character evocative of brightly hued fruit and warm island sunsets. The pineapple (Ananas comosus) is a relatively new fruit widely-loved by the Japanese. A native of South America, the pineapple was brought to Japan in the late 1800s as Western culture and tastes were becoming popularized. Although first produced in Japan on a small island near Tokyo, pineapples are now produced in Japan on the tropical Okinawan Islands.
