Hoyo Sawayaka Junmai is a gentle junmai. Soft and smoothly contoured with a touch of balsam and tangerine, this demure junmai is made by Uchigaski Brewing Company, the oldest brewery in Miyagi Prefecture, founded in 1661. The Hoyo label has been in continuous production for over 350 years.

Pairing Suggestions: Sawayaka's easy, effortless drinkability makes it a good match for both kaiseki delicacies and simpler fare--it makes almost any food taste better. Best served chilled with sushi and sashimi or at room temperature for cooked dishes.
