Hakutsuru Nishiki
Rice polishing ratio: 49
It is a junmai ginjo, but the rice polishing ratio is 49%, so it has junmai daiginjo specifications.
Yogurt-like aroma.
Well-balanced ginjo-shu with a touch of bitterness. Hakutsuru-nishiki gives the impression of being fruity, but this is more on the dry side.
This sake is stored in wine barrels.
I was told that Katsunuma Brewery's wine barrels were used, and having visited their winery, I had to buy this! I had visited the Katsunuma Brewery, so I had to buy it!
The aroma is mild.
Color is slightly yellow
Taste is clean and refreshing, with a slight bitterness afterward.
The aroma and flavor of wine barrels was not clear to me 😅.
But the initiative of storing in wine barrels is great ✨.
I purchased one in September 2024 when I stopped by Easy's former workplace.
I had been curious about it for some time, as it was exclusive to this dealer, and finally was able to purchase it.
It has a citrus aroma and sweet-sourness, followed by a mineral bitterness as it pulls away🍊.
I thought for a moment that it might be sweet, but it was quite complex.
