This sake is famous for its label featuring the back number of Hisashi Mitsui from "Slam Dunk.
It is a dry junmai ginjo. I drank it with my friend who came back from France on vacation while eating sashimi and sushi.
First Mitsui Kotobuki.
Summer sake.
It is said to be brewed with a high malic acid producing yeast patented by Fukuoka Prefecture.
The mouthfeel is refreshingly light and watery, just like summer.
The refreshing acidity of malic acid and the sake-like taste come in a flurry afterward, and the aftertaste goes on and on.
The sake taste is a little bit like drinking sake at the end.
Lactic acid bacteria type aroma peculiar to nigori. Slightly nigori, with a lactobacillus-like aroma. It has a refreshing aftertaste that is typical of summer sake.
Finished work early today... 🙌
Let's have a drink before I leave!

She said she has some new sake!
