🍢 Experience the unique character of Dainagawa Tenka Cheese Junmai Ginjo Nama Genshu. This sake offers a distinctive aroma of ripe pear, banana, and caramelised rice, evolving into a velvety palate with notes of toasted nuts and umami. Its gentle sweetness is balanced perfectly by a clean, dry finish.

Produced by Dainagawa Brewery in Akita, Japan, this Junmai Daiginjo Genshu is crafted using Kyokai 180 yeast and Akita komachi rice polished to 35%. The sake reflects the pristine quality of Akita’s mountain-fed water and clean air, making it a true expression of its origin.

The palate is round and smooth, offering a refreshing yet mellow aroma that develops over time. The nama genshu style brings an energetic liveliness, balanced by the sake's inherent richness and elegant sweetness.

At 16% ABV, this sake is best enjoyed well-chilled, enhancing its refreshing and complex profile.
