Opened the bottle with a pusher. It has a yellowish taste. Sweet and tart. The sweetness is more like fruit juice than rice. Very tasty.
This is one of the five sake breweries that collaborated with Tomiya, which deals with Kyoto's local sake. The label design was the nicest. Purchased at Tomiya, Kyoto Station.
Black malted rice, Milky Queen, they keep the temperature high even when dancing, -28
The aroma is fruity but not that strong.
Strong sweetness and acidity.
Sourness is also there.
Not so sharp?

I'm an old man, but let's have a romantic drink once in a while 🤩.
So here's to Shirakikyu's summer sake with a nice label ✨.
Interesting that they use Koshihikari rice.
Juicy, with just the right amount of sweetness, acidity and gasiness, I thought it was a sake to be enjoyed in a relaxed manner rather than gulping it down 😊.
I want to drink it again 🙆♂️
A dare to finish with a sparkling wine (although I'm going to one more after this). It's sweet and easy to drink, not too much to imagine, but it's just as delicious as I imagined it would be.
SHIRAKIKU / SHIRAKIKU URANISHI Light Nigori Nama-Shu 4.3
Assessment
Ingredients: Milky Queen from Tango, Rice polishing ratio: 60%, Specification: Unfiltered unpasteurized sake (light nigori) with white malted rice, Alcohol content: between 15 and 16%.
The refreshing aroma of lemon and citrus fruits derived from white malted rice spreads, and the natural sweetness peculiar to eating rice can be felt. It has a fresh and well-balanced flavor of light nigori.
The lactic acidity is effective and pickle-like. The acidity is moderately effective against the sweetness for a refreshing taste.
