Smooth on the palate
The aroma spreads in the back of the mouth.
I found another great one.
According to the liquor store
It changes day by day.
Please take your time and savor it!
I wonder if I can do it.

Aftertaste: Alcoholic taste and gentle cotton candy-like sweetness.
Impression: Scentful umami type dry taste
It is dry with umami, but it is also light.
It is dry with a strong alcohol taste, but the balance of flavors leading up to it is exquisite.
Although it is a junmai daiginjo, it does not have a sweet taste, and is considered to be a good mid-meal sake.
I would like to try it with a variety of foods from now on.
(PS) There is a chocolate-like nuance in the attack. It is a dry sake with a subtle yet delicious flavor, and in the end I would like to have another bottle.
I want to repeat it.
Forbidden fruit, Kirinzan Daiginjo, really good! I drank it for the first time, but it has a delicious flavor and is easy to drink! It was my first time to drink it, but it had a delicious flavor and I could drink it with gusto!
GI Niigata. Daiginjo using 100% Koshitanrei produced in Okuaga.
As a side note, I personally don't think that adding alcohol to a GI sake has much of an effect on its value.
The rice and water can only be from within the prefecture, but there are no restrictions on the alcohol.
Let's get back to the main topic.
The aroma is quite gorgeous even when using sake bowls
As you would expect from a daiginjo.
Fruity, sweet and elegant aroma like melon!
The taste is rich sweetness and umami that melts in your mouth, but then the acidity and alcohol make it flow smoothly down your throat, making it very smooth and tasty.
Overall, it is quite sweet, but with Niigata's characteristic clean sake quality and the smooth mouthfeel of a daiginjo, it is very easy to drink and is a delicious sake with a wonderful balance between drinkability and mouthfeel.
