Kameizumi Junmai Daiginjo Genshu Uchu Shinkaishu (720ml) 亀泉 純米大吟醸 宇宙深海酒

The deep blue label evokes the boundless vastness of space and the endless depths of the ocean - commemorating the miraculous journey the sake yeast had in space and the deep sea! In 2005, the yeast was launched from Russia and returned after 10 days in space. In 2021, the yeast was submerged to a depth of 6,225m, where it remained for four months, enduring 600 atmospheres of water pressure before returning. 

The result - A gentle melon aroma and the soft umami of rice, and has a rich, expansive flavor.

2005年、ロシアで打ち上げられ宇宙に10日間滞在し還ってきた宇宙酵母。その酵母が2021年、水深6225mまで沈み、4か月間滞在させ、600気圧もの水圧に耐え帰還。深い青のラベルは果てしない広大な宇宙と、どこまでも続く深海をイメージしています。穏やかなメロンの香りと柔らかい米の旨味があり、伸びやかで奥深い味わいです。
