I drank Komatsu's Shinsen for the first time.
It has a slightly dry aftertaste, which is nice while eating Kanazawa's specialty, kabayaki loach.
(Personal opinion).
Cold.
Not so sweet but sweet and sour.
Full of rice flavor.
It also has a strong sense of alcohol.
The bitterness is also good, and it is a powerful and tasty sake.
The quality of this sake is very similar to that of the Soko-Kan sake that I drank before.
Toyama Ekichu BAR Hokuriku Summer Sake Festival 2025 (3)
Shinsen Junmai Ginjo Sou
Rice polishing ratio 60
Alcohol content 13%.
Next is Shinsen from Komatsu City, Ishikawa Prefecture.
The low alcohol content makes it refreshing and easy to drink.
It was a unique drink with a firm richness and a slight sweetness followed by a crisp sharpness.
After a short pause, it became mellower and more mellow, giving it a different mouthfeel. However, the core flavor remained the same and was very distinctive.
