Jikin Junmai Ginjo Hachitan Nishiki Nama 1 Year Aged
Rated 4.4-4.5
Rice: Hachitan-Nishiki from Hiroshima, Polishing ratio: 50%, Alcohol: 15.5%, Production Date: December 2024
On the palate, tangerine, white peach, and mango-like fruit nuances that stand out even among Jikin wines gradually spread to the palate, followed by a beautiful sweetness and umami. The moderate acidity adds to the complex flavor of the rice itself and harmonizes perfectly with it. These elements combine. The sweetness, citrus-like, has been made more mature after a year of aging. It also retains a sense of freshness. It has a harsh aftertaste of spiciness and bitterness that is typical of nama-zake. After a long time, it becomes mellow.
