This dish was given to me at a hotel in Nagano, Japan. It is a dry wine that can be used for a wide range of buffet style dinner menus.
It was served in an all-you-can-drink wine glass, and we had about 4 glasses. I drank too much.
My favorite Tokubetsu Junmai, a little dry and easy to drink, with sweetness and umami coming gradually.
The moderate alcohol content exiting through the nose is also a plus.
Miyajima Sake Shop
Zankuro Tokubetsu Junmai Shu Mellow Dry Nama Shu
This brewery is located in Ina City, Nagano Prefecture.
This is a limited pure rice brand from the Shinano-nishiki brewery.
The sake rice is Miyamanishiki produced in Ina.
Aromatic flavor and a clean, crisp taste.

It has the flavor of rice, but with a strong acidity and a tightened feeling.
There is little aroma spreading in the mouth, and the impression is of dry rice flavor with a bit of fullness.
The mouthfeel is refreshing and dry.
It does not disturb the meal and is delicious alternately with other dishes.
It goes well with sweet date rolls, herring roe, and vinegared mackerel.
The New Year's menu is a typical New Year's choice.

Good.
Good community center chic sake.
Everyone drinks this kind of alcohol like it's water and becomes a heck of a lot of fun. That is important in many ways.
I don't know why. Why not?
There have been many generations, many eras, and now we are here.
Junmai (pure rice) with 81% rice polishing ratio. This was probably the first time I drank it.
In the past, it would not have been possible to call it junmai. Even if they wanted to, they couldn't? It might be the style of sake of the time. I don't know.
I know I shouldn't be too grateful when I hear "Junmai," but I like Zankuro, and sake is a luxury item. Sake is a luxury item.

Deep rice flavor. Aroma of rice with depth. The aroma and the sharpness that does not linger despite the bitterness that lingers on the tongue. It may be liked or disliked, but it seems to go well with food.
It's good! Zankuro is a brand that never fails to deliver. If you are used to drinking sake, this might be a good brand for you.
I'm afraid I won't be able to continue if I try too hard, so please spare me your impressions. 😅
