UZUME Umakara Genshu

UZUME Umakara Genshu – Yamahai Junmai

Bold yet Gentle. Dry yet Deep. A Balance Born of Nature.

Fiercely dry, yet remarkably gentle.
Bold and clear, yet graceful and smooth.
You might not expect a sake like this to exist—until you taste it.

A guest once took a sip and said,

“I didn’t think I’d ever find a flavor like this.”

With a sake meter value (SMV) of +15 and an alcohol content of 20.9%, it sounds like a fireball on paper.
But in the mouth?

“This isn’t just dry. It’s umakara.”

And so, its name was born.

This sake wasn’t crafted by calculation. It simply became.

Brewed using the traditional yamahai method in an open-top tank, the fermentation was guided only by nature: the rice, the microbes, the climate, and the quiet rhythm of the kura.
No shortcuts. No forced control. Just patient listening and timing.

What emerged was a rare equilibrium—
Not by design, but through natural alignment.
It was then gently pasteurized and bottled as-is, undiluted, and unfiltered.

This is a limited-edition genshu that captures a moment of spontaneous perfection.

The pinnacle of yamahai × genshu.

Rich and savory.
Structured acidity.
And a dry finish that slips away cleanly.

You’ll find none of the harshness typical of high-SMV brews.
Instead, there’s a soft fullness from the rice, a calm intensity, and a quiet, persistent echo.

It’s not intended for aging—but it could mature into something even more profound.
That said, let’s be honest: you’ll probably finish the bottle before it ever gets the chance.

A gift for those who think they’ve tried it all.

If you typically gift daiginjo, this is the one to surprise them.
A sake full of punch and depth—yet dignified and balanced.
It’s often the “unexpected one” that leaves the deepest impression.

Where it all began: “Hōjō no Mai”

Though this sake was born from serendipity, it reflects our core philosophy: letting rice speak for itself.

Its origin shares the same foundation as our flagship “Uzume Hōjō no Mai,”
a yamahai junmai beloved for its softness and versatility at all temperatures.

Try them side by side, and you’ll taste how nature and brewing intention can create entirely different outcomes—each beautiful in its own right.
