The description's dry (辛口), clean and refreshing character, with no heavy genshu weight, points to restrained aroma, a light body and low sweetness. The nama genshu style leaves moderate richness.

About

The Hatsushibori for the Reiwa 4 fiscal year (2022) is a dry Junmai Nama Genshu (unpasteurized, undiluted sake). Its clean, refreshing character does not feel heavy for a genshu, making it an ideal table sake that pairs well with any dish. Please enjoy this Hatsushibori, which is available only at this time of year. Quantities are limited, and as it is a popular product, we recommend ordering early.
