The junmai ginjo I had before was a bit gassy, but this one is a mid-priced ginjo? It is a good sake without any pedantry.
A good sake with no pedantry.
A little bit strong, a little bit fruity.

This luxurious freshly squeezed sake is made from 100% "Satoumi Rice" Akihikari, which is produced by sowing "oyster shells" from the mineral-rich Seto Inland Sea in the rice fields to improve the soil and grow good, strong rice, and using all the "Nakadori" portion, which is of stable quality. It is a bottle with the characteristic flavor of akihikari rice and a faint gaseous sensation even though it is fire-aged.
After about a year on the market (2023.4)
It's getting awesomely tasty!
The aroma is ripe lychee
Luscious taste of red melon
Ridiculously light aftertaste!
The best of both worlds: Nama-zake and lightly matured ⭕️
I hope Koyama-san in sales will try it too: ⭕️

The aroma is distinctly sweet and mellow.
It is also sweet in the mouth. It is sweet like a banana. It may be the sweetest one I've had recently.
Not only sweet, it has a complex flavor with a hint of bitterness and sourness.
Finally, the sweetness and umami spread slowly and leave a lingering aftertaste.
The various flavors repeat like waves, slowly receding.
A true work of art.
Beautiful clear color, gently fragrant ginjo aroma. Good balance of sweetness and acidity from the slight gasiness in the mouth (^^)
