Hi Kenny Kong, Thank you so much for your review! Kagatobi “Ex Dry” is so much dry sake, so this sake must be pair with some spicy foods. This sake is acidity consists of complex flavors that combine with the full body for a clean finish. If you like this sake, I recommend that Kagatobi “Sen Nichi Kakoi” which is really great balance and so much umami! Kampai!

Hi Dustin, Thank you so much for your review. Kagatobi “Ex Dry” is dry sake, so it must be pair with grilled meat. If you would like to drink some other dry sake, I recommend Otokoyama which is also dry sake.

This does not disappoint as a dry sake. It pairs very well with more delicately-flavored foods since it does not compete for attention on your palate.

Interesting and tasty when served chilled, with walnuts and umami on the front, a creaminess on the tongue, and a bit of alcohol on the finish. Matches well with beef (as suggested on the card). I’d buy this again, as well as consider visiting the brewery on my next trip to Japan!

This is an absolutely stellar sake if you are looking for rich umami and a super-dry finish. While there is a slight flavor of alcohol on the entrance, the umami finish with notes of shitake and walnuts lingers in the mouth for a very long time. It would be great with grilled foods or other richer flavors. Before we tried this sake we weren't entirely sure about the more dry varieties, and our preference leaned toward the sweeter. This bottle showed us what great dry sake is all about and we're looking forward to trying even more!
