Kubota Senju Ginjo “1000 Long Lives”

True Sake Verified independent store

The nose on this Ginjo from Niigata Prefecture is a party of dried fruit, minerals, nutmeg, ripe plum, and banana cream pie. Oooooh, the Kubota legend brings forth a Ginjo that bel ts around flavors such as caramel, cotton candy, and cocoa in a very dry and clean package. There is a bit of back-door acidity, and an unmistakable aftertaste that revisits the cotton candy elements. Clean and clear, this Ginjo gives a good impression of a layered sake that works better at or near room temperature.
