Purchased at a store directly from the brewery. I first had it cold. The aroma is subdued, but there is a ginjo aroma. It has a good mouthfeel and a nice sharpness. It has a slightly bitter aftertaste.
Next, it was served warm. It has a mellow mouthfeel and the bitterness is gone. In my opinion, I would recommend heating it up. We had a Junmai sake of Kurogyu a while ago, and it was also good warmed up. I think Kurogyu goes well with warmed sake.
When drunk cold, it's too refreshing and lacks something. But if you warm it up a little, well, it's delicious 😋.
I also feel the breadth of black beef and like it even more 😊.
This is Kurogyu Junmai-shu (middle distillation), unfiltered, unblended sake.
It is a delicious dry sake with a crisp taste from the sweetness of the rice to the umami acidity. It is available at Marumi Sake.
