Manabito Sake
Small batch ginjo sake, kept in stock at our Commack counter.
The story behind Manabito
Ginjo is a premium grade of sake, brewed with rice polished down to at least 60 percent of its original size and fermented slowly at cooler temperatures. That extra milling and gentle fermentation give ginjo its hallmark: a light body, soft texture, and a clean aroma of pear, melon, and steamed rice, with less of the earthy weight found in ordinary sake.
We stock Manabito Ginjo in a 750mL bottle here at the shop in Commack. It is a small allocation, so call ahead to confirm availability before you make the trip.

Which Manabito is right for you?
Manabito Ginjo comes in a single 750mL bottle at $39.98. That is a fair price for a true ginjo, since the extra rice polishing and cool fermentation cost more to produce than a standard table sake. We keep just a bottle or two on hand, so call (631) 343-7200 before you drive over.
A gentle step up from basic sake, easy to sip chilled.
Clean and light, it lets raw fish and rice dishes lead.
