This bottle is a Sake Gumi selection!
Shinriki rice is an heirloom rice variety local to Kumamoto brought back by just one grain from near extinction, and we are eternally reaping the benefits. We don't have a ton of sake available from Kyushu, but this stunner from Kumamoto's Chiyonosono is just fantastic. A rich, mellow, full-flavored sake with fresh-cut green grass aromas and hints of tropical fruits on the nose. This is certainly not a fuddy-duddy stuffy ginjo - sure, this has refined aromas and enough subtlety and class for the uber-fussy, but Sacred Power also has these amazing aromas of lemongrass and cooked cream that we just can't get enough of when it's open in front of us. This is a staff favorite!
