{"product_id":"denshin-junmai-genshu-aki","title":"Denshin Junmai Genshu \"Aki\" (2026)","description":"\u003cp\u003eUndiluted, full-bodied, old-school junmai with autumnal notes of brown butter, fire-roasted sweet potato, chestnut, boiled peanuts and egg custard. But there's also a freshness to it when you first open the bottle: a fleck of lemon lime and salt that reminds me of the much lighter, less serious Tensei Endless Summer. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAki is an indulgent, guilty pleasure that feels like a sake mounted with cultured butter, softened by the silky texture of Fukui's utlra clean, soft water. Delicious at room temp, a little warm, or with a light chill-- but not too cold. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis might be the most rustic of the Denshin releases, because it makes no effort to be “pretty” or aromatic, instead it is a full embrace of cold-weather richness and nostalgia. This sake is comforting, simple: the kind of drink I reach for to relax, to not think. While I offer many suggestions for non-Japanese cuisine, this might be the one most suited to rustic, homestyle, cool weather Japanese cooking. It also ages gracefully, improving and evolving each year. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Columbia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42773014380700,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/4075\/9964\/files\/denshin-akicopy.png?v=1703123224","url":"https:\/\/sunflowersake.com\/products\/denshin-junmai-genshu-aki","provider":"Sunflower Sake","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
