SingaporeFantastic value for money. Dry and fruity
SingaporeSurprisingly good considering its price. A value for money sake for those who like it abit dry and sweet.
SingaporeRe-purchase. Really like how easy to drink this is.
SingaporeGenshu is Saké that is not diluted with water. Very fruity, sweet and easy to drink. Good pairing with ham, grilled fish and any type of chicken. Polished to 55%.
SingaporeWater is commonly added to the brew before storage to reduce the alcohol level to below 15%. Without its addition, the undiluted sake is called genshu 原酒. This often brings out more aroma, texture & finesse. The whisky equivalent terminology would be cask strength, but in the case of sake, the alcohol is not necessarily more noticeable. In the case of this Toko Junmai Ginjo Genshu, it was...making it great to pair with chicken kaarage!
