This "jikagumi" (directly bottled from the press) nama genshu (unpasteurized undiluted sake) bursts with a vitality as if awakening from winter slumber, offering a lively fruitiness unique to this method. The pleasant, sparkling effervescence is characteristic of sake bottled immediately after pressing.

With the first sip, a fresh, juicy acidity reminiscent of grapefruit and green apple spreads throughout the mouth, accompanied by the powerful rice energy unique to genshu. This vibrant flavor, as if enduring the harsh winter cold and announcing the arrival of spring, leaves the drinker feeling positive. It is a bottle that perfectly combines freshness and power, allowing you to directly experience the seasonal deliciousness.
