Mikotsuru is brewed by Mikotsuru Shuzo in Suwa-gun, Nagano Prefecture. Mikotsuru Brewery contracts with local farmers and uses Yamadanishiki, Kinmonnishiki, Yamae Nishiki, Miyamanishiki, Hitogochi, and Gohyakumangoku (the only rice produced in Aizu). Each of them is brewed at a 50% rice polishing ratio, and the series is designed to take full advantage of the characteristics of the rice used to make the sake. The Miyamanishiki rice we will be drinking this time is produced in Suwa, where the brewery is located. After bottling, the sake is heated only once by boiling in hot water.
It has a mild aroma of fresh apples. Despite being fire-aged, the slight effervescence that rises slightly gives it a fresh feeling. The refreshing sweetness and the spread of the flavor that lights up the tongue. The palate is clean and refreshing without much acidity, with a mild bitterness that finishes off the lingering finish. This is a well-balanced wine with fruity and fresh nuances.
