Shiboritate Ginjo Nama Genshu – “Drunken Snapper”

This is a delightfully zesty, voluptuous, nama (raw/unpasteurized) genshu (no additional water added at bottling) with powerfully fruity aromas, a bold, round, mostly dry texture, and a lip-smacking finish. As fun and fruit-forward as a young Bourgueil Cabernet Franc, and as lip-smacking as a ripe Touraine Sauvignon Blanc.

Note: This sake is a shiboritate (“fresh-pressed”). This means it’s bottled right after pressing. This is also a raw, unpasteurized sake, bottled in a unique vacuum-sealed can for freshness; please keep refrigerated!
