G Sake Joy Junmai Ginjo Genshu NV

United StatesLet's start with the lingo. This is a Junmai (no added alcohol), Ginjo (top 4 premium sake grades) Genshu (undiluted with water) Sake. From Oregon, no less. With Calrose sake rice grown in the Sacramento California. Being undiluted, this is at the upper scales for sake alcohol content at 18 percent. And you can feel it: a punchy, bold, smooth and full bodied sake with lush melons, perfumed Anjou, Asian pear crispness and a sweet cereals note on the weighted, glycerol palate. There's a riff of grip on the sides.Tasted: 21 March 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
