Fruity aroma
more fragrant than sake
Good sharpness
Not too sweet, but as described on the web, a little bitterness like biting the skin of an apple (delicious bitterness)
Can be served as a food sake.
No photo of the bottle, as it was poured out in a single gouge.
Manjyo Brewery's "Krewashinin Kuheiji Betsusetsu Senko-no-Tane" (Seeds of Flash)
This sake was harvested in the fall of 2024 and specially prepared.
Acid" is a characteristic of Manjyo Brewery.
We have defined this "acidity" and sublimated it into a new expression.
The 2024 Yamada Nishiki from Kurodasho has a rich aroma and supple flavor that is superior to that of previous years.
As symbolized by the green letters, it has a youthful, rice-like graininess and a fresh aroma. It expresses a unique flavor that sets it apart from the standard "Kuheiji".
The fruitiness is reminiscent of white grapes such as green apple and muscat.
The acidity spreads from the mid-palate and enhances the light, white wine-like flavor. The terroir characteristics of the clay soil of Kurodasho, Hyogo Prefecture, are expressed as the usual "Kuheiji" flavor.

Love is conveyed through the label, which explains everything from the recommended sake cups to the maturation process.
It is a little sweet for a junmai daiginjo and would go well with a variety of dishes depending on the temperature.
It has a sweet aroma, a smooth sweetness that matches the aroma, and just the right amount of bitterness that comes later.
It has a good sweetness, but at the same time, it has a classic sake-like taste that has been sharpened, and my personal feeling is that it is similar to Tobiroki (Junmai Daiginjo).
It is very tasty.
5th glass. Quite a refreshing drink. The entrée is under ice fish, asparagus, and hokke tempura. Good ingredients to enjoy.
The label says "Neither male nor female. Human. I want to transcend borders and divides. I want it to be that kind of sake.
Since I work in a diversity-related business, I kind of sympathized with the diversity-conscious comment.
