It is refreshingly dry. It is truly a clean cut. It is not too assertive and goes well with everything, leaving your mouth feeling refreshed.

Purchased at Shirakikuya in Tomita, Takatsuki City, Osaka for about 3000 yen. Sake is expensive these days. I was looking for a junmai (pure rice) sake with about 60% polished rice, but it turned out to be 61%!
And the alcohol content is 16 degrees.
It is 100% Miyamanishiki with reduced use of pesticides.
This is my first sake from Nagano Prefecture. It has a nice mouthfeel, but it is very robust. It is cut and clean.
After two weeks of drinking, it mellows out. It is a bottle that makes you think that sake is good.

Aroma of rice. Dry and sharp. But there is also acidity and a hint of sweetness. Numbness and astringency on the tongue. Delicious. When heated, the softness comes forward. It has two sides.
I have the impression that Shinanonishiki is a sake brewer that makes quite sharp sake.
We bought it at Miyajima Sake Brewery in Ueda. Zankuro's brewery is Miyajima Sake Shop in Ina.

Let's sip a little sake and soak in the intoxication, Zankuro!

The lack of sweetness makes it taste more like sake! I thought so at first sip, but the taste doubled when paired with food.
The dry, mellow chart is convincing.
It becomes more and more delicious!
Recommended for those who like lukewarm or hot sake.

Good morning, Hiro 😃.
The name is as snappy as Zanteiken 🗡️ 😄I'm almost tempted to mutter in the style of Goemon, 'I've had another good one' 😆.

ヒロ
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😃.
I laughed at your Goemon style muttering 🤣🤣.
I'd like to say it but I'm not sure I'd like the looks around me if I drank at a restaurant, so I'd recommend drinking at home 😆.

Zankuro Kinmon-Nishiki Kunoichi Junmai Namaishu
Rated 4.4
Rice used: Kinmon-Nishiki, Polishing ratio: 91%, Yeast: No. 10
Focusing on "harmony between the original flavor of the rice and the cut," it expresses the presence and crispness of the rice due to the 91% rice polishing ratio. It can be served cold or warmed.
Bottled March 2024, shipped from the brewery August 2025.
Touch soft rice flavor after a year and a half of layering. Convergence is a reasonably sharp mid-meal sake with a sense of outline.

Kiwamono in the Zankuro series with outstanding sharpness
61% Yamae-Nishiki polished rice, 1101 yeast, 19% al.
Hot, dark, dry and spicy
The herbaceous flavor is best when watered and heated.
It is also good to drink it with lemon soda like a Ramune.
But I like to drink it as it is.

Masaaki Sapporo, thank you 🙇 Haha? I sometimes wonder how many years I've been doing this. Sometimes I wonder 😌 Zankuro is like a character from a period drama 😀.

It has an alcohol content of 19 degrees!
It is recommended to drink it on the rocks or with soda, but it has a sour taste and can be drunk as a regular summer sake.

It is mellow and dry, but the umami of the rice is not intense, making it easy to drink, and the aroma is subdued.
