It is an unfiltered raw sake, so it has a yellowish appearance and is described on the label as "an extremely delicious food sake with a sense of rice". The sake was exactly as described.
The rice used is 100% Gohyakumangoku produced in Ishikawa Prefecture with a low milling ratio of 88%.
The sweet aroma does not interfere with the food, and the full-bodied rice flavor, sweetness, and richness that spreads in the mouth are impressive.
The soft water makes the sake easy to drink, but the dry finish will leave you wanting one more cup and one more cup.
I sincerely hope for the recovery of the affected areas.
Please do your best!
A glass at the corner bar.
The texture is smooth, and the color is a clear pale gold. The heady aroma is subdued, but there is a distinctive aroma, perhaps due to the fact that it is a kijo-zake.
In the mouth, it has a thick honey-like texture and sweetness that reminded me of bekko candy. The ingredients include sake that has been aged for five years, so there was a hint of maturity in the taste.
As a whole, it had a dessert-like taste and a rounded nobi-jo-shu.
