Fuji Takasago Sake Brewery

Kumo-no-Ue Mt. Fuji Fukuryusei-jikomi Tokubetsu Junmai

Made with ultra-soft water sourced from Mt. Fuji, this is a seductive sake overflowing with umami.

This sake is a collaboration with the Fuji Takasago Sake Brewery. Using ultra-soft water that begins as rainfall on Mt. Fuji and is gradually filtered through the mountain, finally emerging as an underground stream, this sake melts into the palate. Rice, water and yeast are all sourced from the brewery’s home of Shizuoka Prefecture, and their Shizuoka-born Toji make sake with seductive sweetness and gentle umami. Mt Fuji, which plays such an important role in the birth of this sake, is depicted on the label.


Flavour profile

This super smooth sake puts the ultra-soft water of Mt. Fuji to excellent use. The fresh flavours of banana and melon are gentle and sweet, almost as if one were drinking a smoothie. This is a highly drinkable sake, overflowing with fruitiness and umami and well worth tasting.

Staff comments

Made using ultra-soft water that has filtered through the mountainside of Mt. Fuji, this sake melts into the palate. Rounded, perfumed notes of banana muffin rise from the glass. Serve lightly chilled in a wine glass to enjoy its aromas and umami to the fullest. Try pairing with raisin butters or cream cheese.
