Akashi-Tai Honjozo Genshu Tokubetsu Japanese Sake is a premium sake from Japan that impresses with its exceptional quality, powerful character and handcrafted production. This sake comes from the traditional Akashi Sake Brewery, located in the port city of Akashi in Hyogo Prefecture - one of Japan's most important sake regions. The name "Tokubetsu Honjozo Genshu" has a special meaning: "Tokubetsu" stands for "special" - and refers to a high-quality selection of ingredients or a special brewing method. "Honjozo" means that a small amount of alcohol has been added to refine the taste, while "Genshu" stands for a non-diluted sake that retains its full alcohol content of 19% vol.
It is produced according to traditional Japanese brewing methods. The rice used is polished to around 70% of its original size - this preserves both character and depth. Akashi-Tai Honjozo Genshu is a strong, aromatic sake that can be enjoyed both warm and slightly chilled. With its compact bottle size of 0.72 l and its full-bodied style, it is the perfect choice for sake lovers looking for an intense yet finely nuanced taste experience. (automated translation)
Tasting notes:
In the glass, this sake is clear and pure, with a delicate sheen. The nose reveals a complex aroma of cooked rice, hazelnuts, dried fruit and a hint of banana. On the palate, the Genshu is full-bodied, rich and powerful with a pronounced umami note. Despite the high alcohol content, the sake remains surprisingly soft, with well-integrated warmth, subtle sweetness and a long, harmonious finish.
Akashi-Tai Honjozo Genshu Tokubetsu is ideal as an accompaniment to strong Japanese dishes such as grilled fish (yakizakana), tempura or hearty ramen. It also unfolds its full potential with grilled meat, duck or Asian marinated tofu. Its complex character is particularly impressive as an after-dinner digestif or at a traditional sake tasting. If you want to experiment, this sake is also ideal for creative cocktail creations. (automated translation)
