I went to the Saga Prefectural Art Museum to see an exhibition of Ukiyo-e paintings by Katsushika Hokusai and Ando Hiroshige. I found a sake shop on the street from the parking lot to the museum. On the way home, I asked for a recommendation and was recommended "Ko-Imari Junmai Ginjo Sumiyama". He said that until recently it was only sold in Imari City. Sumiyama Junmai Ginjo is brewed with locally contracted sake rice, "Saganohana" grown in terraced rice paddies in the Sumiyama area. It has a sweet, fragrant ginjo aroma, a pleasantly fresh gaseous taste, and a good sharpness. 1,750 yen for a 4-goupe bottle.
I received the information from Tsuyodai and was able to purchase the product successfully. Thank you very much 😊.
Refreshing ginjo aroma. It has a citrusy taste with a clean mouthfeel. When I raised the temperature a little, a bitter taste appeared, and when I cooled it down to a crisp, a refreshing sweet taste appeared.

I was very satisfied with the taste, which is very good for the price: ‼️💕
Origin. The sake that made me fall in love with sake. It has a fresh mouthfeel with acidity. It has a mellow, mellow taste with a crisp, dry finish. Well-balanced and delicious.

From the moment the bottle is opened, the aroma has a freshness and rice flavor that makes you think, "Oh, this is the one I like. There is a slight acidity, and the taste is smooth and supple. There is a bit of bitterness, but it is still delicious.
