We bought a bottle of Kuroryu Jungin at a local liquor store. I tried to buy Junmai Daiginjo Ginpu because I liked its elegant sweetness when I tasted it at the liquor store, but they were out of it, so I chose the basic Jungin. I had it cold and had grilled gizzards with salt and pepper as an entrée.
In my opinion, Kuroryu is a versatile all-purpose food sake that goes well with both meat and fish. The fruity taste is moderate, with a light sweetness and acidity that leaves a delicious rice flavor on the tongue, and the crispness after swallowing is pleasant. The alcohol content is relatively low, so it is consumed at a fast pace, which is a drawback. It was a blissful weekend evening drink.
Yamadanishiki produced in Tojo, Hyogo Prefecture, 35% polished rice
The aroma is very high. Banana strength. And the taste is enhanced by the deliciousness of the raw sake. It fully stimulates the senses of taste and smell. It is delicious. It is not too sweet.

When I heard the name "Kuroryu", I had an image of a dry and elegant wine,
but this one is very fruity! Yum!
I drank it with cream cheese snacks,
It went really well with the cream cheese snacks.
I want to drink it again.
gk1, good evening! Although it has the image of dry Hokuriku sake, Kuroryu is actually more of a fruity medium-bodied sake! Thanks to the low-temperature aging process, the sake keeps its quality well! It goes well with meals, so please come again!
Kuroryu Hi-Kei Kotobuki Kotobuki.
It is a seasonal pure Junmai Daiginjo made from the highest quality Yamadanishiki produced in Tojo, Hyogo Prefecture, polished to 35%.
We decided to uncork it early this year because we let it sit for a little too long last year.
When the bottle is first uncorked, it has a mellow, banana-like heady aroma. In the mouth, the fresh, clear, elegant sweetness of the rice spreads out without any cloying taste. The deep umami flavor is assertive and lingers on the palate for a long time. The taste is very high quality for a sake that is still in its raw state, and is a true masterpiece!
It's suddenly cold with the return of the cold weather!
To accompany sukiyaki for dinner ✨
It's as good as the sweetness of sukiyaki!
