Kikusui

As soon as you open the can and pour, a fruity and gorgeous aroma wafts out. Upon taking a sip, you are met with the intense and powerful umami of rice, unique to a raw undiluted sake (namagenshu) that has undergone neither dilution nor pasteurization. It offers a thick, rich, and satisfying taste of freshly pressed sake. Kikusui is brewed by Kikusui Sake Brewery in Shibata, founded in Meiji 14 (1881). Their flagship 'Funaguchi Kikusui Ichibanshibori' was created in Showa 47 (1972) after three years of development, becoming Japan's first canned raw undiluted sake. The aluminum can blocks out light, sealing in the freshly pressed flavor exactly as it is. Perfect for enjoying casually while traveling or outdoors. It is a fresh and powerful cup delivered straight from the brewery in Shibata.
