YAMA NO KOTOBUKI FREAKS 2 山の壽 FREAKS 2 720ml
Brewed by Yama no Kotobuki Shuzo (山の壽酒造) in Kurume, Fukuoka Prefecture, FREAKS 2 is part of the brewery’s cult-favourite experimental series that pushes the boundaries of traditional sake making. The FREAKS lineup is known for its bold character, rich texture, and spontaneous fermentation energy — and No. 2 takes that spirit to the next level.
Crafted with a unique yeast and modern low-temperature fermentation, FREAKS 2 explodes with juicy aromas of tropical fruit, green apple, and yoghurt, backed by an umami-rich palate and fine natural acidity. Bottled nama genshu (unpasteurised, undiluted), it delivers an energetic, slightly effervescent texture — refreshing, bold, and unforgettable.
