Ryu
Otter made in New York.
The label says something about the pursuit of even better taste, but it tastes just like the usual Otters. In a sense, this is the work of Otters, whose manufacturing process is data-coded, because they make this in America, where the environment is different.
It is strange that the item is not sake but sake because it is not made in Japan.
Still, they can call themselves Junmai Daiginjo. It's in Roman characters, though.
The water in the other country has a high hardness, so the minerality is strong and the taste has more depth.
The alcohol content is a little low at 14, but you don't feel it. Usually, when there are a lot of minerals in water, yeast tends to play an active role and the alcohol content tends to be higher, but I wonder how they adjust the alcohol content.
The wine's alcohol content is around 12%, so it is likely that the aim was to lower the alcohol content to match the wine.
