Variety of Sake Bottles to Choose from

Orange County Sake Bottles Kikusui Kiku Masamune Sho Chiku Bai Ginjo Junmai

We understand that sometimes, you want a specific sake for your particular sushi experience. That's why we always have an extensive list of sake to choose from. We have lighter ones. We have drier ones. And we also have ones with a slight fruity taste. Ask our servers what they recommend if you do not know what to select. And, if you're unsure about a new sake, see if we have a smaller bottle like the ones pictured. They're great to try out for the first time or to drink by yourself. And they also make your hands look big.

Happy Sake Weekend

Kikusui Junmai Sake Weekend Happy Orange County OC Sushi World Chef best

This picture embodies a pretty perfect weekend to us: a big bottle of Kikusui sake and our sushi chef. That means we're going to drink and eat well and that pretty much means happiness all around. Swing on by this weekend to dine-in or take-out! Talk to our sushi chefs to find out what you like best and they'll make sure to accommodate all your requests as best as they can. And of course, getting a big bottle of sake isn't mandatory but it sure helps, especially if you do decide to drink with our chefs. :-)

Kikusui Sake

Kikusui Junmai Ginjo Chrysanthemum Water Orange County OC Sushi World Sake

One of the most popular sakes out there right now is Kikusui Junmai Ginjo. It's brewed with rice, water, and yeast out of Niigata-ken and is considered a dry sake. It's also called, "Chrysanthemum Water." We have heard from several customers that they notice hints of cantaloupe with a slight banana aroma in this sake Or maybe, you might taste something different? If so, we'd love to hear about it! It goes great with all kinds of sushi so it's a great one to get in general. We always have both a small bottle and a large bottle chilled and ready to serve.

Let's Drink Sake!
