海の男
This is a product of KURAND. The rice polishing ratio is 60%, and although not stated, it appears to be junmai (pure rice). It is slightly colored. When you put it in your mouth, the aroma with a sense of maturity spreads. It feels sweet and mellow, but the sugar content is 10.0%, so it is not so sweet, but the strength of umami is evident. This aroma and caramel-like sweetness (though not sweet) feels similar to Ishikawa's Kikuhime, Yamahai Junmai. I haven't had Kikuhime for a long time, so sorry if I'm wrong. I warmed it up a little, but the astringency in the aftertaste was noticeable and didn't change my impression much. It has a strong flavor, so I paired it with some fried fish, which was not bad.
