くるまや
I bought this Akita sake at a supermarket in Kita-ku, Niigata City. I was attracted by the cool label and the reasonable price. It is made with 59% milled rice, all Miyamanishiki, and the brewing water is super soft water from the Shirakami mountain system, a World Natural Heritage site (hardness is probably less than 1mg/L. Amazing!) This sake must have taken a lot of time and effort to ferment because it is made with ultra-soft water and a traditional yeast mash.... My first impression is that it has a complex flavor with strong acidity that only a traditional sake brewer can produce. The ultra-soft water makes it easy to pour down the throat. When heated, it becomes even more clear and smart! It's easy to drink and you can't help but drink more 😋.
