Shichiken Yama No Kasumi 11% 0,72l
Product characteristics
Shichiken Yama No Kasumi is crafted by Shichiken in Yamanashi using mountain-melt water from Mt Kaikoma and traditional fermentation techniques with sake yeast. A second fermentation in the bottle creates fine bubbles, while suspended rice lees add a velvety texture and gentle sweetness. This light, elegant sake has an unexpected character, perfect for those who enjoy dry sparkling wines and seek new experiences.
Serve well-chilled at 4-6 °C in a flute or white wine glass to allow the delicate bubbles to rise and aromas to open. It pairs beautifully with seafood such as oysters, uni or sashimi – the subtle sweetness and effervescence cleanse the palate. It also complements soft cheeses, creamy desserts or a light fruit salad. For a twist, try it with vegetable tempura or light cream-based pasta – the bubbles and umami balance the structure.
Shichiken Yama No Kasumi – sparkling sake with a velvety texture

Flavour and character
On the nose you will find rustic cheesecake, coconut cream, pineapple and lychee. On the palate it is sparkling and juicy – green apple, yuzu zest, minerality and rice creaminess. The finish is soft, with a light echo of salinity and transparent minerality.
How it is made
A second fermentation in the bottle creates fine bubbles, while suspended rice lees (nigori) add a velvety texture and subtle sweetness. This combines traditional fermentation techniques with sake yeast and crystal-clear water from Mt Kaikoma.
