Special Junmai Sake Kura-Nama
Sake rice: Hitanishiki produced in Ibaraki
Yeast: Hitachi yeast
Rice polishing: 55
Alcohol: 16% abv.
Purchased at the souvenir shop at Hitachi Station during a business trip to Hitachi.
Ibaraki Prefecture has a surprisingly large number of sake breweries.
The flavor has a slightly subdued, clean rice aroma.
It has a freshness typical of nama-zake, and since it is not so assertive, it seems to go well with anything as a mid-meal drink.
