KAGURA JUNMAI CLEAR 神蔵 京の恋 Clear無濾過生原酒720ml

Brewed by Matsui Shuzo (松井酒造), one of Kyoto’s oldest breweries (est. 1726), Kagura Junmai “Clear” (神蔵 京の恋 Clear) represents the brewery’s modern take on unfiltered sake. The name “Clear” evokes both purity and brilliance — capturing the essence of Kyoto’s soft water and serene brewing spirit.

Made from Kyo-no-Koi rice (京の恋) — a rare Kyoto variety developed for premium sake — and bottled as a Muroka Nama Genshu (unfiltered, unpasteurised, undiluted), this sake delivers striking freshness and intensity. Expect aromas of pear, lychee, and white grape, leading to a juicy, textured palate with bright acidity and crisp minerality. Lively, clean, and full of energy, it’s the perfect expression of contemporary Kyoto sake.
