Here it is tonight.
I bought this bottle in Nagano last month.
It has a matured and delicate flavor...I like this kind of wine.

Kurosawa
Special Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake
Kurosawa Shuzo Co.
100% Hitogochiki from Shirakura Farm in Tomi City, Nagano Prefecture
Polishing ratio 59
The first brewery.
The taste is typical of sake brewing.
It is delicious,
Next time, I would like to drink a sake made in a different way.
Rice polishing ratio 65
Alcohol 16.5
Junmai Nama Hashiroshi 80%. It was hard to get rid of the schwash. Light Nigori (nigori) Nama Sake. The customer next to me said it was like playing dodgeball.
We visited standing drinking chuin before the typhoon hit.
The second sake was Kurosawa Namahoshi Shinshu Wine Barrel Aged.
It is a pure rice sake brewed by Kurosawa Shuzo using Kinmon-Nishiki and aged in a local wine barrel for two summers.
A relative of Kurosawa Shuzo's brewer is in the wine brewing business and provided the wine barrels to make this sake possible.
The appearance is a pale rosé color with strong transparency.
It is hard to tell from the photo, but at a glance it does not look like sake.
The aroma is also close to that of rosé wine, with a slight grain and cream cheese taste.
The taste has a dry first touch.
The taste of light dryness with umami flavor spreads in the mouth, then acidity passes to the nose, and the tannin astringency converges and finishes.
The alcohol level is firm but not sharp due to aging.
The taste is sake at the entrance and wine at the exit.
The overall balance is dry and quite intoxicating. ☺️
This sake is not just an oddity, but a well-considered sake that broadens the range of sake.
While talking with the owner, Mr. Kawada, about how he brewed the original sake with this finish in mind and how he thought about the sake quality design when doing so, we moved on to the next sake.
Clean aroma 🎵
80%, so it has a concentrated flavor and acidity 😣.
Soft and refreshing aftertaste 😉.
The label reminds me of the world's master brewer, Kurosawa 🎦.
