Daiginjo

"San" is a word that means a sake cup.
Made using the finest Shimeharitsuru techniques, including carefully polishing high-quality Yamadanishiki rice produced in Hyogo Prefecture in-house, washing and soaking the rice for seconds, temperature control, long-term low-temperature fermentation in small batches, and low-temperature aging after bottling, this is a Daiginjo sake with a clean fragrance and smooth, crisp flavor.
The sake is so flavorful that it makes you want to share cups with everyone, so we chose the name "San," which means more Sake cup.

Kubota’ s Daiginjo Genshu, international exclusive undiluted sake, has a gorgeous Ginjo aroma with a hint of apple spreading a refined sweetness that is unique to Genshu. A rich flavor is followed by a refreshing crispness.

This is the flagship product of the Shunnouten series, made from Hyogo Prefecture-grown Yamada Nishiki rice, which is carefully polished to 40% in-house and brewed with the skill and heart of the master brewer.
The label features calligraphy handwritten by Ms. Yosano Akiko, who named the sake.
This is a product that allows you to enjoy a smooth mouthfeel and a deep, elegant, and gorgeous flavor that will give you a relaxing moment. The color of the label is inspired by the color of the koji starter.

To fully appreciate its delicate floral notes, we recommend serving this sake chilled.

Recommended Food Pairings

This versatile Junmai Daiginjo complements both delicate Japanese seasonal dishes and creamy international flavors:

• Japanese Classics: Matsutake mushroom rice, mushroom dobin mushi (savory teapot soup), and grilled ginkgo nuts.

• Modern Pairings: Salmon carpaccio/marinated salmon, Camembert cheese, and maitake mushrooms tossed with spicy cod roe (mentaiko).

Gemini's Note: Since the SMV is -2, it leans slightly toward the "sweet" side of the spectrum, but because it's a Junmai Daiginjo with a 45% polish, it will likely feel very clean. I used "Medium-Dry" as it's the most common consumer-friendly term for this range in English-speaking markets.
