Shinriki" is a revived rice that was produced in the Meiji era, Together with "Kame-no-o" and "Aikoku," it was one of the three major rice varieties of the Meiji era. The sake brewed with "Jinriki" rice grown under contract in Miyagi Prefecture is called "Kenkunichi Tokubetsu Junmai Shu Jinriki". This is the third year for "Jinriki" sake, and this year the brewery took on the challenge of flattening and polishing the rice. The aroma is subdued, with a light, soft mouthfeel and a hint of white grape-like aroma. The sharp acidity is impressive, and the aftertaste is light and lingering. When served chilled, the acidity becomes more pronounced and the taste is crisp. When served warm, it has a different impression of softness and mild sweetness. Even at higher temperatures, the balance of the flavors remains intact, giving this bottle a new expression.
