Takachiyo純米吟醸 Sakura 無濾過無加水 一本〆
NASUMAN404
Niigata Prefecture is a neighboring but distant prefecture of Toyama. And Echigo Yuzawa Station, which I visited on a trip. This is a nostalgic platform where I used to transfer to the limited express train "Hakutaka" before the Hokuriku Shinkansen was built. I went to Takahashiya in front of the station to pick up some sake as a souvenir. The cherry blossoms have already fallen, but the bottle is open today.
This sake is brewed with a rare fixed variety "Ipponshime" grown under contract in Minamiuonuma City (former Shiozawa Town). It has a rice polishing ratio of 53% and an alcohol content of 17%. It is not too sweet and has an elegant sharpness. It is a great taste.
