The nose on this robust Genshu aka undiluted sake is a mild collection of apple, oatmeal, lime, and pastry, with a hint of caramel. This massive brew drinks almost like an “Anti-Ginjo" Ginjo that is rich, round, chewy, wide, and wicked. Formerly a Tokubetsu Junmai, this brew has been rebranded, milled to 60% with an ABV of 18%. An umami bomb that is full and fun. Look for cream, molasses, hot chocolate, brown sugar, brownie, crème brulée, and cocoa flavors that glide around with depth, girth, and grace in a big bowled glass. Basically, this is a mouthful of rice that drinks more full than fruity, and has incredible depth that this legendary and highly acclaimed brewery knows how to achieve. This is trophy sake. WORD: Full WINE: Deep Reds/Creamy Whites BEER: Creamy Belgians FOODS: Cooked oysters, pad thai, grilled artichokes, meat and game, rich stews, and pastas.
