ariccy
As a representative of Junmai series, let's compare it with the Aruzoe from earlier.
This one is slightly higher in specs with 5% more polished rice using Tokkagami Yamadanishiki.
The aroma is of the same lineage of ginjo aroma, but it's not so sweet, so it's not fruity, but simply beautiful.
The taste is clearly stronger than the special honjozo.
Even though the main flavor is the same rice flavor, this one has a deeper and more complex flavor than the alsobe type, which has a smooth mouthfeel.
The taste is fuller, but elegant without any cloying taste.
This is a very high quality junmai ginjo-shu.
Both are good food sake, but this one seems to go well with strong flavored dishes.
