Shizuoka prefecture

$37.00

Rich, round, ravishing

This “genshu,” or undiluted junmai sake, has a higher alcohol content with concentrated robust flavor. It has an almost creamy texture that delivers layers of flavors like pear, lychee and banana. Beneath it all lies a nuttiness that only adds to the complexity. Neither too dry nor too sweet, Wakatake “Onikoroshi” Junmai Genshu has become a staple at many dinner tables and very well could become one at yours.
