Compared with last year's release, this vintage features a slightly lower alcohol content, making it even more approachable while enhancing the crispness of the finish. Although crafted in a light and elegant style, it still retains the gentle umami derived from the rice, resulting in a sake that beautifully balances refreshment with depth of flavor. Bright, soda-like notes add a lively and invigorating character, making it an ideal choice for enjoying during the height of summer.
"Gentatsu Se" is a legendary fishing ground open for only about two months each year, from mid-June to mid-August, renowned for yielding enormous yellowtail amberjack and red sea bream. Inspired by the summer Sea of Japan, this sake captures the magnificent image of a red sea bream leaping from the vast ocean, expressing a style that is both refreshing and full of vitality.
The creation of this seasonal "Summer Gentatsu" reflects the brewery's desire to introduce more people to Fukui and share the beauty of its landscapes and local terroir. The essence of Fukui's summer coastline has been distilled into every glass, offering a vivid taste of the region's maritime character.
