Kubota Genshu
Kubota Genshu is sake in its most undiluted form, nothing added, nothing held back. Crafted in the genshu style to bring its full intensity forward, it opens with vibrant apple and ripe banana and finishes with a bold, clean crispness that holds its own against almost anything on the table. Best on the rocks or well chilled.

Pairing Recommendations
Bold and confident, Genshu doesn't back down from other flavors. Pair it with dishes that can stand on their own, and see how much better they are together. Try it with Nanbanzuke (deep-fried, vinegar-marinated fish) and taste how the oil’s richness balances the vibrant acidity.
Serving Suggestions
- Enjoy on the rocks, slightly chilled, or at room temperature.
- For best results, serve at 40-70 °F (5-20 °C).
In the glass
Apple, ripe banana, and white peach give this Daiginjo Genshu an unmistakable presence. The palate is robust and full, with pronounced umami and a rounded body. A clean, dry finish carries a firm bitterness that holds your attention, even as the final sip fades.
