Hakkaisan “Tokubetsu Junmai” Genshu

Sometimes you’re in the mood for something a little stronger, with a little more oomph. Hakkaisan Genshu has that oomph. This undiluted sake delivers a umami-rich flavor backed with a surprising sweetness. Did we forget to mention it has a higher alcohol content than average sake? That’s part of the oomph, but there’s no harshness. The brewers made sure of that by fermenting the sake for a long time at nice, cool temperatures.
