The Gekkeikan Junmai Sake is a premium selection that celebrates the heritage and art of sake production at the historic Gekkeikan house, founded in 1637 in Kyoto, Japan. Presented in a 72 cl bottle, this sake is produced following the Junmai method, which means it is made using only rice, water, yeast, and koji, without the addition of distilled alcohol.
The rice used for Gekkeikan Junmai is carefully polished, removing at least 30% of its surface, to ensure a purer and more refined flavor. This process emphasizes the natural sweetness and complexity of the rice. The taste profile of this sake is characterized by delicately fruity notes and a hint of vanilla, which harmoniously balance with a light acidity. Its finish is clean and refreshing.
Served chilled, Gekkeikan Junmai Sake pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes, from sushi and sashimi to more robust international cuisine. This sake offers an authentic expression of traditional Japanese taste, ideal for enthusiasts seeking a refined and culturally rich drinking experience.
