Gekkeikan, the world’s best selling sake producer, is unleashing a whole new type of sake on the world. This is Zipang Sparkling Sake, a naturally carbonated sake, that is light and sweet with a burst of bubbles. Zipang is an antiquated name for Japan, transliterated from Chinese dialects into Portuguese, Japan was also known as Cipangu a few hundred years ago. But unlike ancient sakes, the new Zipang has been infused with tropical fruits to give it a really refreshing finish. Try it straight or mixed for your favorite blend. $TBA.
