“Shinmai Shinshu” means “New Rice New Sake.” This is a limited brew only available at the beginning of the year, made with 100% newly harvested Niigata-grown Gohyakumangoku rice. Those who already love the strong, undiluted taste of Kikusui “Funaguchi” will have their admiration taken to the next level with the brand’s freshest release. Rich and electrifying, it’s a natural match for yakitori and other lightly salted, grilled dishes.
