Tasting Notes

Brewed using the traditional Yamahai method, this sake undergoes a slow, natural fermentation process where lactic acid develops organically, allowing it to absorb subtle influences from the environment. The result is a complex, dry, and bold expression of Ginjo sake, further intensified by its robust 18.5% ABV.

The palate is rich and creamy, with layers of deep umami and a structured body that lingers. This sake showcases a powerful yet balanced profile, offering both vibrancy in its youth and the potential for even greater depth with aging.

With its bold character and rich texture, Kikuhime Yamahai Ginjo Genshu is a sake that rewards both immediate enjoyment and extended aging, evolving into an even deeper and more expressive profile over time.
