The first bottle was sold out, so we had a 4gou bottle.
The rich umami of the raw sake is pleasant along with the flavor of the raw sake.
I had the impression that Shirakiku was sweet, but it was just right, and the bottle was empty in less than two days.
Quite juicy, mellow and sweet.
It leaves a heavy aftertaste.
The acidity is less than I expected, and I think it is heavy for a summer sake.
However, the mild umami and richness that is typical of rice is deeply impressive, and is typical of Shirakiku from Okunoto.

Sweet, clean, slightly bitter
Mouthwatering and fragrant
It is said to be revived from the earthquake! It was served in a Suzu ware glass.

Oh no, it's a sake from Shirafuji in Wajima. It is a special pure unfiltered raw sake.
I am glad I could get it during this Bon Festival.
When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the acidity and sweetness. This, this, this. After drinking it down, the bitterness from the umami of the rice lingers on the tongue. The overall taste of this sake is gentle and cohesive, a characteristic of the Shirafuji Sake Brewery.
I am slowly enjoying it with a side of grilled squid with shichimi mayo.
The number of brewers seems to have decreased, but I will continue to support this carefully brewed delicious sake.
