bouken
I went to Isetan with Ao and tasted it and bought it.
I didn't know Mizuo was here and was just hanging around when Ao called me and I went over there and they were having a Mizuo tasting 😁.
The person in charge of the brewery was a woman named Ms. Tanaka, so I guess she was the proprietress? I wonder if she is the mother of the person who came to Hankyu last year.
I decided to buy it immediately after taking a sip.
The rice used is Kinmon-nishiki.
It is fire-brewed but slightly effervescent. It is refreshing, with a strong acidity and a short aftertaste. It is low in alcohol, but has more umami than expected.
I thought it tasted similar to something when I tasted it, a little bit like the summer junmai ginjo from Shinshu Kamerei that I had before 🤔.
It's not as sweet and gassy as Shinshu Kamerei, though.
