Tasting
Aromas of ripe bananas, yellow peaches, and hints of cereal. Aroma is a combination of elegance and complexity.
Subdued sweetness and a clear, expanding umami.
Firm acidity and a tight bitterness form the sturdy bones of the sake, and a slight spiciness enlivens the tasting experience.

Pairing
Japanese whiting tempura, fried spring rolls, asparagus goma ae, bamboo shoots stewed Tosa style
The ripe banana and spiciness of Nanago make a good harmony with the aromatics of such dishes. The sake’s clear, expanding umami balances well with dashi.
