Kikusui Sakamai Junmai Daiginjo Genshu
Tasting Notes
This high-impact sake has lush aromas of fresh fruits, drying herbs and grasses, and a refreshing high note resembling apples. As with many luxury Genshu sakes, the fine, complex flavors come unto the palate with a rich mouth-filling character. The sake is brewed with the rare heirloom sake rice varietal Kikusui (coincidentally sharing it's name with Kikusui Sake Brewery) which had once been considered extinct, but which Kikusui Sake Brewery revived from only a small handful of grains.
