Niwa no Uguisu純米吟醸 うすにごり
みうらうみ
I had a sudden craving for a nigori, so I was wondering where to go for one. I was wondering which nigori I should try when I came across this one, which was introduced on the instagram of a store I trust!
I had always been curious about the label design and the great name, "Garden Uguisu", and this time the label is just as cute as ever!
The first sip was interesting, with a distinct change in flavor from soft sweetness to sourness to bitterness to acidity!
There's not much of the unique nigori koji taste, but the sweetness is soft and delicious!
Also, the sweet aroma when the bottle was opened and poured into a sake cup was very nice.
It is perfect for this season when the plum blossoms are in bloom, the Chintcho cherry blossoms are in bloom, and the Kawazu cherry blossoms are starting to bloom! It is a perfect sake for cherry blossom viewing!
The 12th day after opening the bottle
The sweetness has weakened a bit and the bitterness of the aftertaste has come forward. Personally, I think the sweetness was at its best on the third day after opening the bottle.
For the last sip, I shook the bottle hard to let it get some air. It became very mellow and tasty too!
