1. Sehlahisoa Overview
Kikusui Funaguchi Nama Genshu Sake is a unique, unpasteurized Japanese sake, known for its fresh, lively, and robust flavor profile. This 200ml can offers a convenient way to enjoy a traditional sake experience.
What is Funaguchi Nama Genshu Sake?
This sake is a Nama type, meaning it is unpasteurized. While heat pasteurization stabilizes sake for shipping, it can subdue some of its original flavor and character. Nama sake, therefore, offers a fresher, livelier, and more 'zingy' taste experience, guaranteeing a vibrant aroma and unique flavor.
It is also a Genshu, which means it is undiluted sake. Typically, water is added to sake to reduce its alcohol level. However, Genshu is bottled at its original strength, delivering a powerful and full-bodied taste.
Why is it in a Can?
Funaguchi Nama Sake is particularly sensitive to light. The specially designed can protects the sake from light exposure, which helps preserve its delicate flavors. Additionally, the can is filled completely to the top to minimize oxidation, further ensuring the freshness and quality of the sake.
