Harushika Junmai Ginjo Ginurara

Imanishi Seibei Shoten has brewed in Nara since 1884, in the ancient capital revered as the birthplace of sake in Japan, guided by a motto that holds equal weight for rice, water, skills, and heart. Ginurara, meaning sparkling ginjo, is made from Gohyakumangoku and Yamada Nishiki polished to 60%, drawing on Nara's pure groundwater. An alluring, bright fragrance opens the nose; lush fruit floods the palate with mango, lychee, honeydew, and apple, layered over gentle rice umami. The finish is clean and juicy with a citrus lift: a sake that captures everything the name promises, brightness, clarity, and life.
