“Narutotai’s Ginjo Nama Genshu is bold, lively, and packed with personality. Its unpasteurized, undiluted style gives it a fresh, vibrant burst of fruit—melon, pear, and a touch of citrus—supported by a rich, full-bodied texture. The higher alcohol adds warmth while keeping the flavors clean and energetic. A standout sake for those who enjoy expressive, dynamic bottles with a refreshing punch.”
“L: Clear, very slightly yellow

T: Follows the nose - fennel, deep/rich rice, umami, nutty, mushroom, slight pear
F: Slight alcohol note (expected at 18.5%)
O: Enjoyed this one, but less than others (e.g., fruity varieties vs umami)”
