If you’re new to Japanese sake and looking for something sweet, smooth, and easy to enjoy, Ichinokura Himezen is the perfect choice. Made by the renowned Ichinokura brewery in Miyagi Prefecture, Himezen is a low-alcohol sake (only 8%) with a beautiful balance of sweetness and acidity.
This sake is specially brewed to suit those who may not usually drink sake or alcohol. With its fruity aroma, delicate texture, and light body, it tastes more like a dessert wine than traditional sake. Notes of white peach, apple, and citrus dance gently on the palate. It pairs wonderfully with light dishes, fruit, or desserts, and is especially refreshing when served chilled or on the rocks.
The name “Himezen” means “Princess’s Delight,” and the sake lives up to its name—elegant, gentle, and charming. It’s a great gift choice, a beginner-friendly introduction to the world of Japanese sake, and a delightful experience for those who appreciate sweet, easy-to-drink beverages.
Available in convenient 300ml and 720ml bottles, Ichinokura Himezen is a sake you’ll want to keep on hand for any occasion.
