Nihonmatsu City.
The aroma is pure rice-like, with a firm umami flavor and a touch of sweetness later on. The aftertaste is good, and you can enjoy drinking it without getting tired of it.
A week after opening the bottle it's still light with white peaches, sugar, raw rice flour, firm acidity, increased sweetness and alcohol.
There's a little bit of freshness and almondiness as it warms.
It's matured over ice, but it's not aged at all.
Daishichi Fuden-o Namaoto Junmoto Old Sake ≪10 Years Aged≫.
Rating 4.5
Ingredients : Gohyakumangoku, Polishing ratio : 69% ultra flat polished rice, Alcohol content : 15
The golden colored drops, which have matured richly over a long period of time, are packed with umami. When served warmed, the flavor will permeate your body.
The sweetness and umami will open up at 45℃, and the light acidity will be well balanced and refreshing.
Congratulations to the Dodgers on winning the World Series for the second year in a row. I was very excited to watch game 7. Tonight, I will be having some of my favorite from the fridge. It is clean, smooth and elegant. Cheers!

Daishichi Shojyo Junmai Koshu 2014
Deep amber color
Rich aged aroma with shiitake mushrooms, koji, beeswax
But not to the point of burnt soy sauce, and at the shallow end you can feel as much as an aged cheese.
It has a strong umami.
The bitterness is surprisingly moderate, with a strange texture that flows smoothly after the umami is felt.
Needless to say, the aftertaste is long.
A limited edition product of Daishichi's prestigious sake associations.
The specs are the usual 69% flat rice polishing, so is the original sake a regular product, or is it a pure rice with a raw yeast yeast base?
Beautiful sake quality and complexity that is typical of Daishichi, and the same quality as the original sake that is not lost even after aging.
Surprisingly smooth texture is perfect for this time of the year when autumn has cooled down and winter is just around the corner.
