Ozeki Karatamba Sake – Elevate Your Palate Year-Round

Crafted using Ozeki’s proprietary fermentation process, Karatamba Sake delivers a harmonious balance of crisp acidity and subtle sweetness—perfect for both casual sipping and gourmet dining. As a premium Junmai Daiginjo base blended with premium rice varieties (Ginshu and Koshihikari), this Honjozo-style sake achieves exceptional clarity while retaining umami depth rarely found in lighter sakes.

Why Karatamba Stands Out
✅ Dual-Serving Versatility: Enjoy icy-cold (5°C) for vibrant citrus notes or gently warmed (45°C) to unlock toasted almond undertones
✅ Culinary Chameleon: Pairs equally well with sushi rolls (subtle soy complement), seared scallops (umami enhancer), or aged cheddar (creamy contrast)
✅ Award-Winning Profile: 2023 International Sake Challenge Gold Medalist for its clean finish and 14% ABV moderate strength

Brewmaster’s Precision
Ozeki’s 130-year legacy shines through their multi-stage filtration system, which removes impurities without stripping aromatic compounds—a common pitfall in mass-produced sakes. The result? A silky-smooth liquid with 0 detectable sulfites or additives, ideal for health-conscious consumers seeking organic-certified options (available in select markets).

Ideal Moments
✔️ Celebratory dinners
✔️ Weeknight relaxation
✔️ Asian fusion cuisine pairings
✔️ Gift-ready packaging (available in gift sets with ceremonial cups)
