Tedorigawa... we were finally able to bring you this 😆.
The transparent design and label are eye-catching.
I heard that Hyakumangoku No Shiro is a new sake rice developed by Ishikawa Prefecture over the past 11 years. The rice is easy to polish and has low protein content, resulting in a clear and fruity flavor.
The raw material rice is 100% Hyakumangoku No Shiro produced in Ishikawa Prefecture
Polishing ratio is 50%.
Alcohol content is 14 degrees Celsius
When the bottle is opened, the aroma has a fruity smell like pears and white peaches, and a light acidity reminiscent of grapefruit peel, giving it a citrusy freshness. The ginjo aroma, which is not too showy, and the refreshing fruitiness stand out in good balance.
When poured into a sake cup, it is very clear and nearly colorless, but there is also a faint lemon yellow color, and the viscosity is as smooth as water for a daiginjo.
When one takes a sip, it has a soft mouthfeel with a fresh pear or white peach-like sweetness that quickly spreads in the mouth.
The acidity lightens the palate without making it too sweet, and the rice-derived umami flavor without any cloying taste comes out in a flash.
In the aftertaste, a crisp acidity and a hint of grapefruit-like bitterness tighten the sweetness, which quickly fades away.
The sweetness and acidity are about the same, and the bitterness is just an accent.
It's not pure rice, but there is almost no alcohol taste. (There is a little bit).
Aroma is moderate. Full-bodied and sweet in its own way. I don't think it is spicy. I don't think it's sour.
It is a well-balanced sake. I like Junmai, but I think this is good.
It was a fresh ginjo sake that I got at a liquor store in Kanazawa's Omimachi Market during my expedition to Ishikawa-Toyama!
It was a refreshing drink for this season.
Blue label Tedorigawa 👀 that I chose because I felt a strong self-assertion on the store shelf.
I imagined it to be gory and dry, but it was fruity, juicy and easy to drink â
It was a delicious sake with a modern taste 😋.
