This is the first Gizaemon in a long time.
It has a good balance of acidity and umami.
A hint of bitterness rounds out the finish.
Mie is also a prefecture with many delicious major brand-name sake, but this was my first time to try Gizaemon. It had a fresh flavor and good ginjo aroma, and was refreshingly tasty in the lingering summer heat.
It's been a while since I've had a cup of sake, and this was the first can I saw, so I bought it.
It has no weird taste and goes well with all kinds of food as it says on the back, but I would have liked a little more aroma and sweetness from the rice.
