A gift from my father-in-law2.
It is 100% Dewazanzan. I've had many Dewazakura junmai ginjos, but this may be my first.
It has a clear, slightly alcoholic ginjo aroma.
The taste is light and neutral.
The spiciness comes first, but the aftertaste is sweet.
Sake is only licked Temperature 5°C
Taste 75
Color Slightly yellow
Nose: Fresh, sweet rice aroma. From the mouthfeel to the lingering aroma, it has a slight old sake flavor.
Taste: Light on the palate, with a sweetness that is typical of nama-shu. The mouthfeel is light and sweet like a nama-shu, but then it switches to dry and crisp. The aroma is in harmony with the flavor.
Overall impression: I like Dewazakura on the whole, but this one did not appeal to me.
Dewanosato, a junmai sake recognized around the world, is one of the 1282 brands that won the "Champion Sake" award in the SAKE category at the International Wine Challenge. While many Daiginjo-class sake are entered in the competition, it is a great accomplishment for a Junmai sake to win this award. The concept of the taste is "taimi hittan," which means that the great taste loved beyond time is not too strong, but always has a good lightness.
