Kurumazaka Autumn Select special junmai sake 2023BY
This sake was recommended to us as an easy-drinking sake. It has a refreshing acidity and a mild umami flavor. Since I don't decide which sake to put in the bottle every year, I don't have a label on the front, so the one I wear around my neck serves as a label.
KODO.ec162 Junmai-shu
KODO.ec162 is a yeast extracted from the soil of Kumano Kodo. Mild, clear sweetness with a sticky texture. The acidity is plum-like and fruity. This is the second test brew since last year, and it is said to be a yeast that makes toji (master brewers) cry because of its weak fermentation power. They are planning to brew another batch this year, but are not sure if they will be able to sell it.
