I have had a few Junmai sake bottles of Kurogyu, which has a soft but very rich and deep flavor. I happened to see it in a department store and was afraid to buy it because the price was over 1000 yen for a Sandesi bottle. The aroma was fresh. It has a gorgeous flavor with acidity and umami. However, what makes it different from other junmai daiginjos is that it has a tangy taste in a good way at the back. Perhaps that is why it is crisp yet complex. It gives the impression of a mature cow eating graceful grass, but with the strength of a fighting bull in its chest.
