Zanso Horai made with Gohyakumangoku.
Rich sweet aroma like banana mixed with LaFrance. In the mouth...Namahashi? Yamahai? The characteristic acidity is abundant and spreads with the umami. The final touch is the peculiarly delicious richness. Kuse...not a negative image, but a positive image that goes one step beyond individuality. It is an attractive, one-of-a-kind sake.

At a sake meeting in Tokyo.
The label is cute and full of apples.
The aroma is completely apple juice.
The taste is more like a cider than a sake. It is so close to apple.
I thought it was amazing that a sake made from rice could bring out so much apple flavor.

Shirokushiki" means "Shiro" in white malted rice.
Because it is made with white koji, the acidity is very strong.
The aroma is moderate and the aftertaste is refreshing.
Sake with a refreshing sharpness that lingers in the mouth.
I think it is more enjoyable in a glass than in a cup.
It is the kind of sake that refreshes you on a slightly hot and humid day.
It is a good sake!
