Gensen means 'specially selected' and Karakichi means 'dry'. It is an every day drinking style of sake. It is quite fruity on the nose. The palate has tight structure with hints of citrus and a savory aspect, finishing long and dry. 

Sake is Japan’s most well-known alcohol. It is brewed using special sake rice, koji (an edible rice mould that serves as the fermenting agent), and sometimes a little brewer's alcohol. A sake's characteristics, including how sweet or dry it is, how light or full bodied it is, and what flavours it evokes, depend on the type of rice and other ingredients used, how much the rice is polished/milled, and what brewing methods have been employed.

Serve chilled, and with anything light and delicate such as sashimi, sushi and salsad. When warm, chawanamushi, oden hot pot.
