Echino Yukitsubaki Junmai Ginjo
60% 15% 720ml 1240yen
A bargain product sometimes seen at supermarkets.
It is a slightly sweet, dry food sake. It has a soft taste.
It is quite good even when heated. It may also have a hint of berry flavor hidden in it.
It has a stable flavor that is just right no matter what time of day you drink it.
I would like to try another sake made with the same yeast.

I bought it because it was reasonably priced at a local supermarket. The bitterness was more noticeable than the sweetness of the rice, but it too went well with any dish.

Paid tasting, but you can try it for free with insta-follow!
Snow Camellia yeast and sake rice are the pride of the Yukitsubaki Sake Brewery.
Two varieties: Snow Camellia Yeast x Koshitanrei and Snow Camellia Yeast x Yamada Nishiki.
Juicy and delicious!
Both are very tasty, but I prefer the Yamadanishiki because it has a stronger aroma and flavor!
It's soooooo good!
From mouthfeel to swallow, the water was easy to drink, and the moment I swallowed it, I could feel the slightest hint of something unique about the sake.
When you smell it, you will find a gorgeous, flowery ginjo aroma. This may be due to the use of yeast extracted from snow camellias. In the mouth, a cocktail-like sweetness spreads, followed by a pleasant bitterness. I got the impression that it was an elegant sake that would be appreciated by women.
