I bought this at my first liquor store while I went to Wakayama to buy dried fish during GW. I wanted to get Ryujinmaru, but they said it was not available now. They will sell it to anyone who comes to the store.
I had it with cold sake.
The color is clear and slightly yellow.
The top aroma is of almonds, caramel, chocolate, and a little alcohol.
The label on the back of the bottle says that it was fermented slowly and for a long time at a low temperature, so I guess it has an aged aroma.
The taste is thick and voluminous with a grain-like flavor. There is also a good amount of acidity.
There is an almond aroma that goes into the nose, an alcoholic aroma, and a guttural sake-like sensation in the throat.
The alcohol content of 19 degrees comes later.
After adding a bit of ice and water, the alcohol feeling is reduced and it becomes easier to drink.
Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic)
Polishing ratio: 50%.
Alcohol content: 15%.
