Product details
Kubota Senjyu Junmai Ginjo is a refined sake from Asahi Shuzo, a brewery established in 1830 in Niigata Prefecture, Japan. Known for its commitment to quality and innovation, Asahi Shuzo introduced the Kubota brand in 1985 to offer a modern take on traditional sake. Kubota Senjyu Junmai Ginjo embodies this vision, delivering a balanced and elegant flavor profile that reflects the brewery's dedication to craftsmanship. Brewed using Niigata-grown Gohyakumangoku rice polished to 50% for the koji and 55% for the mash, this sake showcases the purity and finesse characteristic of the region's sakes.
Kubota Senjyu Junmai Ginjo offers a balanced tanrei-karakuchi sake that has an elegant, refreshing and gentle aroma, with echoes of umami and a smooth, dry mouthfeel. When chilled, you'll get hints of tartness and a crisp finish. This sake pairs well with light vegetable dishes, seafood, and basil pasta, making it a versatile companion for various cuisines. Best enjoyed chilled, Kubota Senjyu Junmai Ginjo offers a sophisticated and refreshing experience for both novice and seasoned sake enthusiasts.
