Product details
This sake, brewed in Yamaguchi prefecture using Yamada Nishiki (Koji) and Seito no Shizuku (Kake) rice polished to 55%, is a Muroka Genshu, meaning it is unfiltered and undiluted. It offers aromas of fresh green apple and crisp fruit, leading to smooth honeyed red apple flavors with umami layers and a clean, crisp finish. Crafted by an almost all-female brewing team using local sake rice and special spring water, this sake employs the traditional “funa-shibori” method to retain its full flavor. "Gengetsu," meaning "Half-moon," reflects the calm inland ocean of its beautiful city of origin.
Using local rice, Seito no Shizuku and a special spring water which they drive in from an hour away, the almost all female brewing team crafts fresh and yet flavorful sake. Using traditional “funa-shibori,” this sake is pressed gently and is unfiltered and undiluted to for full flavor.
