A clean, delicate taste that leaves no aftertaste.
World-renowned wine critic Robert Parker gave it the highest score and praised it as "sake that surpasses wine. It is highly acclaimed around the world and has been shipped to 25 countries.
Enjoy it with sushi and French cuisine.
I was told that there were two kinds of kotsuzumi, one of which I had already had, so I chose this one.
Kotsutsumi is a local Hyogo sake, but I don't drink it often.
It is a Junmai Daiginjo with a 50% rice polishing ratio.
The rice is Gohyakumangoku.
According to the official website, it is an autumn-only sake and is the only sake made using Kozutsumi's original brewing method.
The name "Shirakura" means "white warehouse" in Japanese. Shirokura, which means "white warehouse" in Japanese.
It tastes clean and refreshing, but has a lactic acid taste like yogurt.
A little lackluster 🤔.
Sake is a little expensive, about 3000 yen for a 4-pack and 4100 yen for a 1-bottle. Taste and price are...
I've had kotsuzumi a few times but it's not for me 🙄.
The kombujime (sea bream) was delicious 😋.
HYOGO SAKE EXPO 2024 Report 3📝.
The unique label of this sake caught my attention, but I have never had many kotsuzumi (small drums) before.
Surprised to find it in a slim bottle containing only 2 gongs 👀.
I thought the sake would be sweet as well since they are famous for their liqueurs, but once the rice flavor spread out, it just flowed smoothly 💨.
It's refreshing. It doesn't leave a weird feeling on the tongue, but the acidity and sweetness are strong enough to leave a lasting impression.
I bought it because of the cute bottle, but the look and taste pretty much match. I think girls will like it!
The public star of Tamba will be mesmerized again this evening.
Jacket value ... 8/10
The green bottle with this label is a good color scheme.
Ki ... 15/20
The nose is sharp, with a strong Alc and a cemedine smell, with a bit of leesiness from the beginning, but the minerality comes first, and then changes to a sharp Alc-type texture.
Sei... 16/20
The bitter taste in the back is accented, for better or worse, but the umami element is not so assertive.
Change ... 12/20
It is good that it has a medium level of sweet umami, but the texture is always a bit burnt.
Yui ... 14/20
It is sweet, but it has a thick Alc sublimation smell.
Cospa ... 6/10
For those who like freshness.
The freshness ≒ Alc burn issue cannot be solved.
