Omi Tohei Junmai Shu Unpasteurized Sake (Masumoto Shuzo Brewery, Shiga)
Rice: Ginbukiyuki, 65% polished rice, 17% alcohol, manufactured 2025.7 (brewing year R5)
The aroma has a hint of alcohol and koji-derived nuances. The mouthfeel has a slight sense of maturity.
The mid-palate is dominated by umami and acidity, with a lingering aftertaste.
Overall, it is classic and somewhat robust.
Since the brewing year is R5, the sake was brewed before the end of June 2024 and stored for nearly a year in its raw state before being bottled.
This gives the impression of a mellowness and thickness.
Preferred Score: 6.0/10
Aroma: 1.0｜Mouthfeel: 1.0｜Medium: 1.0｜Final taste: 1.0｜Price: 2
This is an interesting bottle with an interesting "roundness in spite of being a nama-shu". I think I am gradually getting to know the expression of the aging process of nama-shu (laugh).
