Shima is a brand inspired by the story of two distinct islands, focusing on the production of saké spritzers encapsulated in cans that are indefinitely recyclable. The brand has successfully combined the classic spritz with innovative flavours, a commitment to quality, and a sustainable approach to design.
One of their offerings includes a Yuzu & Elderflower variant. This drink combines the tartness and slight sweetness of yuzu juice with the aromatic notes of elderflower blossom, enhancing the green, floral undertones of the Junmai Saké. Junmai Saké, a traditionally fermented beverage from Japan, is made from a simple blend of water, rice, koji, and yeast, producing a rich flavour profile that includes floral, fruity, and earthy notes. The koji plays a vital role in bringing the rice to life, and in this product, a premium Junmai saké is used, ensuring no additives are present.
The ingredients for the Yuzu & Elderflower saké spritzer include sparkling water, sake (water, rice, koji), yuzu juice, botanical extracts (elderflower, Persian lime), natural flavours, and mineral salts.
The Plum & Hibiscus variant offers a decadent experience with deep, juicy Damson and aromatic Ume plums, coupled with the zesty, redcurrant-like flavours of hibiscus. This combination adds a rich depth to the savoury, green rice notes of the Junmai Saké. As with the Yuzu & Elderflower, the saké used is a premium Junmai variety, ensuring a pure and additive-free beverage.
