sparkling nigori

`eight peaks sparkling nigori hakkaisan, nigori (cloudy) 360ml $70 a fuller bodied, unfiltered sparkling sake with a bit more bubbles, and very food friendly, specifically with spicy foods or our oyster tacos

nigori (cloudy & unfiltered)

`dreamy clouds’, tokubetsu junmai (shimame) 720ml $90 banana, nut & steamed rice flavors round out this well balanced and lighter-style nigori

glass jars

`nigori (unfiltered) glass jar’ kunizakari, futsushu, (aichi) 180ml $16 a glass jar filled with unfiltered sake; cloudy, rich, slightly sweet, supremely delicious

`fisherman’s jar’ junmai ginjo 180ml $18 a glass jar you’ll want to take with you; smooth and clean with an easy finish

tonkubetsu honjozo

`endless summer’ by tensei, tokubetsu junmai (kanagawa) 720ml $60 A session style sake from a south eastern surf town. Notes of melon and apple with coastal salinity. Made for summer nights after a long, sun-kissed beach day. Stoke level is high.

nautilus wine list pg. 4 updated: 9/6/20 ginjo & junmai ginjo

`well of wisdom’ tozai, ginjo (osaka) 300ml $29 a light & thoughtful sake; peach skin, apricot, anise, squash & pepper; very clean

`bride of the fox’ kanbara, junmai ginjo (niigata) 720ml $72 a fragrant and crisp sake, notes of green apple but with a richness that will warm you up

`otter fest 23’ dassai, junmai daiginjo (yamaguchi) 300ml $105 one of the most highly polished sakes in the world, only 23% of the rice remains; it is a subtle, delicate & ethereal sake w/ passion fruit, apple, cedar & great minerality

`silent samurai’, shichi hon yari, junmai daiginjo (kinki) 500ml $165 The silent samurai is earthy and mushroomy in the nose but reveals light notes of melon and grapefruit on the palette. This `drip’ style sake is special as it is not pressed, but hung and allowed to drip through cloth, preserving the pure flavors of the brew.

yamahai (labor intensive, bold, gamey flavored sake)

`ancient treasure' kanbara, yamahai genshu koshu (yamaguchi) 720ml $205 using a special and ancient method of allowing natural yeast and bacteria present in the brewery, this style of sake starts its brewing process itself, allowing for bigger and more in- depth flavor, some would describe as gamey.
