Gekkeikan Zipang is a naturally carbonated sparkling Junmai sake from Fushimi, Kyoto, made by Gekkeikan, a brewery founded in 1637. It is brewed to Junmai standards using only rice, water, koji and yeast, with carbonation from natural secondary fermentation in sealed tanks. The aroma brings rice flour, banana, white grape, ripe melon, peach, nectarine and a faint floral, yeasty quality. The palate is noticeably sweet but balanced by bold acidity, with effervescence lifting stone fruit and cantaloupe across a medium, refreshing body. The finish is short and clean, with a brief sweet residue of ripe pear and melon.
