Gekkeikan Suzaku Junmai Ginjo-shu is a premium sake crafted in the Fushimi region of Kyoto, Japan, one of the most historically significant sake-producing areas in the country. The name Suzaku refers to the mythological vermillion bird, guardian of the south in Japanese tradition, reflecting this sake's refined heritage and elegant character.

This Junmai Ginjo-shu is made with the finest rice polished to 60% of its original size, combined with fresh spring water, yeast, and koji. Fermented slowly at low temperatures, the brewing process draws out a distinctive aromatic profile featuring delicate notes of pear, honeydew, pineapple, and lychee with a subtle tropical quality. On the palate, Suzaku is smooth and refined with flavors of rice and hints of apple, balanced by a refreshing acidity and crisp bitterness. A prominent umami character provides depth and makes this sake exceptionally food-friendly and versatile alongside a wide range of cuisine.

The finish is dry and refreshing. Suzaku can be served chilled, warm, or at room temperature, and is both sulfite free and gluten free. At 15.5% ABV (31 proof), this 720ml bottle is ideal for sharing at the dinner table or enjoying on its own.
