STYLE Junmai Ginjo Genshu: Made with only rice, water, yeast and koji with the rice milled to 60% of its original size. Aged ten months for extra body and depth of flavor. A hand crafted, special blend of three superior sakés selected by our tasting panel and blended to their specifications.
TASTING NOTES Whether you are a saké purist or a looking for an incredible saké experience to set a standard for saké exploration this is the one for you. Full fruity nose with hints of spice give way to rich, creamy layers of ripe melon flavors with hints of pear and plum followed by a long, lingering tropical spice finish. A truly special Junmai Ginjo Genshu Saké.
PAIRING NOTES "G" goes wonderfully with a wide range of Japanese cuisine including sushi and tempura but shift your perspective and think world cuisine, pacific fusion or even South American. Set a glass next to rosemary crusted lamb, grilled artichoke hearts and a selection of rich cheeses. Or, pair it up with chipotle spiced ribs, lime and chili black beans and tomato rice. "G" goes well around the world.

"This is the kind of saké I've wanted an American producer to make. It adheres to the traditions of fine saké which appeals to the purist, yet it is crafted to have the big layered flavors that the American palate has come to expect. This is a truly wonderful saké, one I have and will share with friends." — Eric Swanson Saké Sommelier, Formerly of Shibuya Restaurant MGM Grand Las Vegas.
It's the first of its kind. An exquisite saké crafted for the American palate and with Foodies in mind. Big, bold with explosive layers of flavor that bring your palate what it should experience in a fine saké. Full fruit flavors, creamy body, spicy with a long finish. This is what our team drinks, we think you'll join us in our passion for "G." |
