Tsuchidaシン・ツチダ 五百万石
寅之助
This is my first Shin Tsuchida. I bought it thinking that I would not be disappointed with Gohyakumangoku, which has an image of a beautifully finished product.
Reading the label carefully, I found that the rice was polished to 90% and that yellow koji for shochu was used.
When I poured it, I found it had a golden color with a matured taste. The taste is mellow like an aged sake, and the aroma is complex. The flavor itself does not seem strong, and if there is anything that is typical of Ihyakumangoku, it is that it is more refreshing than ordinary aged sake.
I was surprised if you drink it with an image of sake of Gohyakumangoku!
