Shirakabegura Daiginjo Muroka Genshu

Awarded at the International Wine Challenge, Shirakabegura Daiginjo Muroka Genshu Sake belongs to the most prestigious category of the traditional Japanese drink.

With a very fragrant, floral and racy aroma profile, this sake has subtle and complex flavors with 50% polish revealing aromas of melon, apple and tropical fruit bouquet with slight acidity and deep umami in the background.

Shirakabegura Daiginjo Muroka Genshu is a sake without activated charcoal filtration (muroka) and without the addition of post-filtration water (genshu) that can be enjoyed chilled and can accompany meat skewers and other Japanese grilled or fried foods such as tempura, as well as a large number of hard cheeses such as aged comté, beaufort or parmesan.

For more than a century, Takara Shuzo, famous for its mirin, shochu and sake production, has been making all of its premium sakes in Nada (Hyogo) at the Shirakabegura brewery, which produces them entirely by hand.
