By Watanabe Shuzo, Tochigi Prefecture

A lively and elegant sparkling sake from the lush mountains of Tochigi, Mountain Dance is brewed by the family-run Watanabe Shuzo with a deep respect for craftsmanship and nature. Naturally carbonated in-bottle, it offers a fine, silky effervescence that carries delicate aromas of white peach, green apple, and a touch of creamy rice. The palate is light, crisp, and subtly off-dry, making it a refreshing alternative to sparkling wine—with a Japanese soul.

This sake is unfiltered (usu-nigori), giving it a soft cloudiness and a gentle texture, perfect for celebrations or aperitif moments.

Suggestions

Goat cheese and fig crostini, oysters with mignonette, beautiful with Spanish tapas like boquerones or pan con tomate.
