Harada Gengetsu Muroka Junmai Ginjo Usunigori Namagenshu

A sake as beautiful and elegant as the crescent moon depicted on the label, as seen from the brewery over the Seto Inland Sea.

A collaboration with the Hatsumomiji Sake Brewery from Yamaguchi Prefecture’s Shunan, Harada Gengetsu is overflowing with fresh and fruity flavours. The label depicts a crescent moon (“gengetsu” in Japanese) over the Seto Inland Sea, located close to the brewery. Enjoy this special unpasteurised nigori (cloudy) release for its rich umami and hazy springtime vibes.

Staff comments

Hatsumomiji is a sake brewery in Yamaguchi Prefecture, known for its year-round production – even the sake it releases in summer is freshly made. This “usunigori” (lightly cloudy) sake combines a gentle umami profile with the freshness of unpasteurised sake. An irresistible summer sake perfect for pairing with food. Enjoy with carbonara, deep-fried eggplant and other vegetable dishes to makes the most of its sweetness and umami.
