Iwanokura Junmai Ginjo
Rating 4.4
Ingredients: Yamadanishiki/Saga no Hana, Rice polishing ratio 55%, Alcohol 16%.
The flagship of Iwanokura, with a stable aroma and flavor balance. Limited distribution in Kyushu. The aroma is reminiscent of apples and white peaches. Delicate and soft on the palate.
The sweetness that spreads in the mouth is balanced with a hint of sourness. The sweetness is typical of Saga sake. The acidity is moderately effective and refreshing. Convergence is slightly spicy and bitter.
When I visited Saga Castle, I purchased this local brand at a nearby liquor store as a limited edition for the area. It is fruity, but with a low sweetness and a refreshing acidity, it was perfect for a mealtime drink. But it seems you can also buy it online.
I couldn't get a good shot of the reflection and it's at a weird angle😅.
This one is a repeat because it was so good.
I like it because it's so rich and delicious 😋.
