Akashi-Tai Daiginjo Genshu Sake
Daiginjo Genshu is an exclusive "grand cru" sake from the Akashi-Tai distillery that has undergone an extra long brewing process. It is made from Yamadanishiki rice, which has been grown in Hyogo Prefecture for centuries.
Sake underwent a very long fermentation and boiling until it reached a value of 38 % grain. It is excellently combined with tuna tartare, ginger and sesame, squid salad and grilled fish.
We recommend serving at a temperature of 7 to 15 °C. You can enjoy it in a Masu (wooden glass), Ochoko (small glass) or a traditional wine glass.
