Tenpyo Junmai Ginjo
Rating 4.4-4.5
Alcohol 15%, Yamadanishiki (domestic rice), Polishing ratio 50%.
Nishi Shuzo, famous for its sweet potato shochu "Hozan", releases a sake.
This junmai ginjo-shu is made from Yamadanishiki. It is a sophisticated sake that should be drunk with a glass of wine. The glass overflows with a gorgeous ginjo aroma of pear, melon, and white peach. When you turn the glass and let it air out, you can also detect aromas of yogurt, fresh cheese, fresh chestnuts and chestnut blossoms, allowing you to enjoy the harmony of layers and layers of aromas. In the mouth, it has a mellow attack. Creaminess with deliciousness, and the fruit flavors that can also be found in the aroma, spread out. The penetrating power through the lingering finish is superb, and despite the richness of the mid-palate, the finish is delicate, as if drawing a line in the sand.
