Shibata Black Yuzu
$45
The yuzu fruit used is from Shibata’s local farm and is all organic. Shibata Black Yuzu is made with a junmai sake base, using Ginpu rice from Hokkaido, which is clear and has a nice aroma. The yuzu is squeezed with the skin left on, thereby allowing for the juice to not be too sweet, with an added touch of tartness. Each individual yuzu fruit yields only about 20ml of juice. The result is sublime.
