Kanpai SUMI Clear Junmai Sake is a smooth, full-bodied tokubetsu junmai sake brewed in South London, offering a modern British interpretation of traditional Japanese craftsmanship.

SUMI, meaning “clear,” is the flagship of Kanpai’s signature range and is crafted using Gohyakumangoku rice polished to 70%, fermented with #701 Japanese sake yeast. Brewed slowly at low temperatures, it develops a rich, fruit-forward profile with a savoury umami finish. On the nose, it presents aromas of apricot, peach, and cooked apple, while the palate delivers sweet stone fruit flavours balanced by a slightly earthy, savoury character. The finish is clean and refreshing, with lingering orchard fruit and subtle depth. This versatile sake is best enjoyed chilled or gently warmed and pairs beautifully with seafood, steak, or smoky barbecue. It also works well in cocktails, making it a contemporary session sake that bridges tradition and innovation.
