This sake is a Junmai Daiginjo from Kichihei Kato Store.
This sake won a gold medal at the Wine Glass Drinking Sake Awards (apparently).
But we didn't have any wine glasses in our house, so I'll be having a toast with my usual sake cup.
The aroma has a sweet scent like a ginjo sake. It's true that if you're in a wine glass, the aroma will build up and be clearly perceived 🤔.
The taste is light in the mouth at first. There's a nice acidity that's not too strong and a soft sweet taste of rice. It's not very sharp, but a gentle sweetness stretches on the tongue. A slight astringency and bitterness appear on the palate. The crispness isn't great, so it's like you want to reset it with water with every sip.
Indeed, this drink seems like it would be better suited for drinking in a wine glass while enjoying the aroma🤔.
By the way, you can buy this sake on Amazon (about 2000 yen per 4-gallon bottle) 👌
I think it's a great sake, reasonable for a daiginjo available on Amazon, and has a ginjo-like flavor.
