I have always been curious about this nigorizake, Shirakawa-go.
The design of Shirakawa-go's Gassho-zukuri style with a dark nigori like heavy snow falling on the lees.
The emblem is the Miwa sake brewery's three-wheeled crest, which is very cool.
This nigori sake is brewed with twice as much rice as doburoku!
It is thick and rich! Thick and milky white color,
The aroma of unrefined sake is gorgeous,
The sweetness is delicious.
But it is not cloying,
It has a mild, moist and mellow mouthfeel,
The acidity is clean and refreshing, and the rich flavor is smooth and smooth.
The rich umami is smooth and easy to enjoy,
It's really tasty!
It will be gone in no time.
It's still a smoothie, though.
A rice smoothie.
They suggest various ways to drink it. I'm interested in Shirakawa-go Cafe Latte.

Drunk on Gifu's Local Sake 2024@Tokyo
The second sake was Shirakawa-go Junmai Nigori Frozen Nama Sake by Miwa Shuzo! The freshly made nigori sake was frozen and stored to stop fermentation.
It was a hot day, so I was attracted by the word "frozen!
I've never had nigori before, so I was very excited ...... I could feel the sweetness like sweets 😋 I want to drink it chibi chibi!

Gifu Prefecture
Junmai Nigori Sake
Rice polishing ratio 70%.
Alcohol 14.5
The aroma is more alcoholic than rice.
In the mouth, it has a smooth texture.
The sweetness of the rice and the strong alcohol content relative to the alcohol content give it an authentic "nigori (nigori)" taste.
Purchased at a roadside station on a trip. I often see this brand, but this was the first time I saw it fresh.
There was no blowout, although there was a warning to open the bottle.
Milky sweet aroma with a sense of rice, a little spicy.
The mouthfeel is reminiscent of amazake made from sakekasu (sake lees).
After the sweetness is strongly felt, the spiciness slowly rises.
The strong aroma of rice spread on the palate, and I felt it would go well with salty food.
Tangy from the moment you put it in your mouth, with a refreshing taste that continues to be tangy until the aftertaste. It has a sweetness that makes it easy to drink. It is best to drink it with strong flavored dishes.
