This time of year there are a lot of pink labels 🌸The aroma is clean and fresh, but the taste is sweet and delicious! The high alcohol content tightens the aftertaste 🙂.
These days I only drink sake that has not been fire-aged, but since the store is often not open on Sundays, I have a fire-aged junmai ginjo.
It is not about the sake brewer, but the fire-aged sake gives me a strong feeling in my stomach.
It seems to be too dry and suitable for hot sake, but I still prefer the raw sake.
I had an image of Manjusen as dry,
but this sake is sweet and easy to drink.
It is not as sweet as Kurobe Gorge's nigori sake, but it is sweet and easy to drink.
but not as sweet as Kurobe Gorge's nigori sake.
It was delicious 😋.

Polishing ratio 55
12% alcohol by volume
Light aroma
The alcohol is light, so it goes down easy.
Sweet with acidity and a nice sharpness.
Too light and it seems to fade away from memory
Visited Sangenjaya Oishi for the first time in a while.
I had a glass of Toyama Manjusen Nama Usu Nigori (light nigori) from my parents' house, served with my favorite rice porridge. It has a unique sweetness and umami taste, but it is easy to drink.
I was attracted to this sake because of the claim that it was made with Dombelli yeast ✨.
The taste is dry and refreshing like Manjusen, but with a fruity aroma and sweet and sour taste that I've never really experienced in sake 🙄.
It's a new taste discovery 💡🍶.
