This is a raw sake with a soft taste like a spring breeze and a slight bitterness. This year, too, we have created a junmai ginjo with a gorgeous aroma, sweetness, and a lingering finish that can be enjoyed. This year's rice was difficult to melt, but we worked hard to create a strong koji to bring out the sweetness and umami. The pump used to press the sake was changed to one that does not damage the sake as much as possible, resulting in a more refined flavor than last year. It is a perfect accompaniment to seasonal foods such as spring vegetables and a warm atmosphere. Let's celebrate spring with this sake." (From Hasegawa Sake Shop's website)
I bought this bottle because it was delicious when I passed by a store that was holding a tasting event. I have known the name for a long time, but this may be the first time I have had it.
I guess it is classified as one of the thicker, sweeter versions of the light sweet sake. It tastes a little carbonated, but it is basically a sweetness that rides on the tongue.
It was delicious with fried chicken, but it might be better to drink it with vegetable dishes that have sweetness.
