Heirloom Amber Sake
Delightfully sweet with hints of molasses and dried fruit, “Time Machine” is brewed following a method recorded in 1712. Loads of umami, natural organic acids and sugars—just like sakes 300 years ago.

Serving recommendations
A superb aperitif or dessert wine. Great with ice cream and desserts, but also with bleu cheese, salty pickled Japanese delicacies and pâté.
