Banshu Ikken Super Dry Junmai Super Dry
Sanyo Cup Shuzo Co.
It gives the impression of being a straightforward dry sake.
In addition, it has a strong acidity, which gives it a sense of balance characteristic of sake made in western Japan. If my taste buds are wrong, I would be very grateful for your advice.
Please forgive me if this is a personal feedback.
I have been a fan of Banshu Ikken for the past 10 years, and when I lived in the Kansai region, I was able to get fresh sake and enjoyed it from season to season. Today, I enjoyed tasting it again. I have a sense of nostalgia, a sense of what it should have been like, what it should be like. However, the sake I've tasted recently has no sourness, and I've come to feel that Banshu Ikken has a strong sourness, which I thought I liked, but it's not as refreshing, and I'm feeling a bit bewildered. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this drink. I know this is redundant, but I love this drink and I personally support it. Please understand that I think it is a personal taste problem.
