Junmai Ginjo Gohyakumangoku
No particular peculiarities, just a hint of sweetness, and then it disappeared crisp and clean.
It goes well with rice, and I never get tired of it.
Sake made from rice grown with less fertilizer, it has a nice sharpness and is easy to drink without getting tired of it. The rice is 100% Gohyakumangoku and the rice polishing ratio is 45%. I had it with fried vegetables, chicken, and pork skewers 😋 #Yaohiro #Yaohiro Tsujido #Tsujido #Fujisawa
I bought this sake at a sake store in Umeda, which I sometimes visit.
The store staff recommended this sake, saying it would be a great sake when heated up.
I don't drink much ginjo-shu, but when I drank it cold, it was easy to drink.
When served lukewarm, the sweetness of the rice flavor was more pronounced, and it was definitely a good sake.
And last but not least, Niigata, a rice-producing region... 😆
First time to drink this brand!
The name "Yobitomo" is also a good name to call friends 🤗.
This sake also has a good overall balance and a taste like a deeper version of Mimuro Sugi, which is also on my favorite list.
I realized later that this sake is made by Asahi Shuzo, the same company that makes Kubota.
