100% Koshitanrei is used. 17% alcohol by volume. The alcohol content is 17%, which is very strong. The alcohol content makes it feel spicy, but it has a rich fruity or umami flavor. It is exactly what you would expect from Koshitanrei sake. It is so tasty that it can be drunk in large quantities, so you have to drink plenty of water with it.
Yummmm!
I thought it would be a light and dry sake like Niigata, but it is more like a light and fruity one. It has no off-putting taste, and the umami of rice, lightness, and fruity taste are well balanced and delicious!
The quality is unbelievable for the low 1,000 yen range 😂Please raise the price!
I'm sure Niigata's sake is great!
Attracted by the label design...
I had some left over from the other day, so I compared the two.
The color of this one is clear like water, but the taste is stronger...
While the Saku has a gorgeous sweet aroma and is perfectly integrated like water, the aroma of this one is not nearly as gorgeous....
The taste is also a bit tangy, and although I can't describe it well, there are some points that make me go "hmmm? I can't describe it well, but there are some parts that make me go, "Hmm?
But I don't dislike the aftertaste. I like it.
Every sake I've had so far has a point where I "like this part" or "don't like this part," and if I can better verbalize it, I'll be able to find more and more sake to my liking. ......
I haven't bought Echino Yukitsubaki since I bought 3㌥ at Donkey's when I first started drinking sake.
This sake is made with the floral yeast of Yukitsubaki.
At first it was sweet and floral.
I thought it would be more dry, but it was more fruity and sweet than I imagined, which is the type of sake I like😋.
I heard there is also an unfiltered raw sake version of this, but I bet it's even better!
Yukitsubaki Shuzo, Kamo City, Niigata Prefecture, Japan Junmai Ginjyo Genjozo, Unfiltered, Kinugoshi Oragami
A junmai ginjo with a gorgeous aroma and a strong core.
Many summer sake are silky and smooth, but this one is very tasty.
