Kokuka no Kaori Sparkling Sake — Red Yeast
A naturally sparkling sake, brewed with red yeast and given a secondary fermentation in the bottle — which is where both the bubbles and the pale pink colour come from. Nothing is carbonated and nothing is coloured; the fermentation does both.
The flavour balances the gentle sweetness of rice koji against the bright acidity that red yeast brings, landing somewhere fruit-forward between sweet and tart. The bubbles are fine rather than aggressive, and at 10% ABV it drinks light.
It works as a food sake, and unusually for sake it sits very comfortably beside Western food. Poured into a champagne flute it looks like an occasion, which is part of why it gets bought as a gift.
