This sake is made from "Furushiro Nishiki". It used to be the first rice developed in Aomori Prefecture that was suitable for brewing sake, but as more and more excellent rice was developed, it gradually disappeared, and now it is only sold at Nishida Shuzo Store. It's a pretty precious one!
The nose is completely muscat.
It has a slight fizziness and the mouthfeel is fresh and piquant. It's a freshness that you wouldn't expect from a single fire.
The taste is also particularly muscat-like, with a sweet and sour taste that's refreshing. It is not only sweet and sour, but also full-bodied and full of flavor. It has a great aftertaste. I think it's a sake that goes well with meals.
I like the standard special junmai sake, but this "Koshino-Nishiki" was also very tasty with a distinctive sour taste. I drank it down.
