This is another Tobiroki Junmai Daiginjo ✨ that I redeemed points for at a distributor.
Compared to the Junmai Ginjo Black Label, the Junmai Daiginjo has a rounder, milder mouthfeel and more sweetness, making it a sake for everyone!
The black label was more classic, but the Junmai Daiginjo is more modern, and very easy to drink 🍶´-.
Like Junmai-Daiginjo, it is great with sashimi and seafood!
Sake level is about 0 to 1 degree 🤔.
Tobiroki Junmai Ginjo Black Label
Purchased from a nearby liquor store in exchange for points ✨.
It tastes like a classic and is the perfect food sake!
It has a crisp aftertaste and goes great with sashimi and fish.
Sake level is about +2 to +3 degrees 🤔.
Tobiroki Special Junmai Kasumi Sake.
It has a melon-like aroma with a slight green tinge.
The slight gasiness and tangy acidity are backed up by a gentle umami and sweetness. The taste order is the opposite of last year's, but the balance is the same.
The acidity and umami that spreads after the gentle sweetness also spreads at once this year.
The freshness can be felt from the mid-palate, while the bitterness and a slight astringency can be felt in the aftertaste, and it finishes well.
The aftertaste is also pleasant and delicious.
Tobiroki has few seasonal brands, but we are grateful for the once-in-a-lifetime encounter.
It was served cold.

The mouthfeel is smooth and mellow. It is delicious 😋‼️ and has a great sharpness.
As expected from the Hiroki Shuzo ❗️
Fruity, juicy, and fruity sake 🍶It has the quality that has kept it as a popular sake ✨I think it is a sake that is liked by those who like modern easy drinking rather than those who like dry 😊🎵The crispness that can be drunk all year round regardless of the season was also appealing. ‼️
Tobiroki Junmai Ginjo.
Tobiroki's so-called black label, aged in ice temperature for a little over a year before being uncorked!
The fruity aroma is reminiscent of bananas, and when you take it into your mouth, you will be led to a mellow mouthfeel that has been mellowed by the aging process, and a full sweetness and concentrated flavor will spread out. It finishes gently with a beautiful acidity.
It is still delicious even after being aged for a while!
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic)
Rice polishing ratio: 40% for koji rice, 50% for kake rice
Alcohol content: 16
It was clear and very tasty.
It is still delicious.
The initial impression is clean and dry, but it has a wonderful crispness with sweetness and umami at the back of the tongue. Junmai Ginjo and Junmai Daiginjo are a bit on the dry side, and I like the moderate sweetness and flavor of this special junmai.
