It is a limited edition product available only at the brewery's store. They let you fill it yourself from the barrel. I filled it so vigorously that it almost spilled.
The flavor is rich and you can feel the sweetness of the rice. It was a good sake.
The rice is Hidahomare produced in Iwamura.
The 40th sake brewery in Gifu Prefecture.
The main brand of Iwamura Jozo in Iwamura-cho, Ena City.
Purchased at a supercenter in Seki City.
The aroma is apple-like ginjo aroma. The color is a little yellowish.
The palate is light and dry with a bitter taste, but the apple sweetness comes later, so it is not a problem.
When you hear the name of the female lord of the castle, Ii Naotora may come to mind, but this one refers to Oda Nobunaga's aunt, Otsuya-no-Kata. She is a female lord of the castle who was at the mercy of the power struggle between Oda and Takeda, married four times, and was crucified by her nephew at the end of her life.

Sweet flavor at first, but dry on the palate.

Nigori (nigori) sake for summer only.
More sparkling and dry than the one we had the other day.
Perfect for summer!
But is it a limited edition sake for this year only? That's what I was told.
Sourced in Japan
The twisted lid was loosely tightened and leaked a little during transportation.
The aroma was good, as is typical of honjozo, and it was delicious.
