Kushira's standard hi-iru pure rice sake.
We recently climbed Mt. Katsuragi in Yamato, took a bath at the summit lodge, toasted with beer, and then had a great sake from the Gosho ✨✨The duck hot pot was also great ✨✨.
The entrance is modest, the aroma is almost imperceptible.
In the mouth, the dry and light taste of the rice is discreetly and gently felt on the palate. The finish is dry and refreshing.
The clear mouthfeel is accompanied by the simple umami of rice. There is no unnecessary aroma or sweetness, but only a pure, slightly umami taste and dry sharpness that is easy to understand 🍶.
Incidentally, "Kushira" is the name of a place in Gosho City, Nara Prefecture, where Chiyo Shuzo is located, and this sake is made using only Yamadanishiki grown in Kushira.
To be honest, the dryness of this classic sake is not my favorite flavor, but it was a great experience to drink a sake made with local sake and water in the place where it was made ✨✨.
