Fresh, rich flavor and mild taste of Shiboritate. From Kurogyu, a famous sake brewery in Kainan, Wakayama Prefecture, comes a limited edition "Junmai Nama-no-Nazubarusake Shiboritate" that is full of seasonal flavor. This is a freshly pressed, freshly squeezed, unpasteurized version of the standard product "Kurogyu Junmai". The rich and powerful flavor that is typical of Kurogyu is irresistible. It is fresh and has a stretchy charm that can only be enjoyed during this season.

It was served well chilled ✨.
This is the first time I found Kurogyu. The taste starts off a little sweet, then the bitterness and sourness precedes and disappears quickly, leaving a plump umami taste of rice at the end. The umami is a cross between Gohyakumangoku and Yamadanishiki, so the flavor is firm and you can feel the full flavor of the rice 🤤.
I paired it with seared yellowtail sashimi. The meaty amberjack flavor and fatty meat combined with the sake is just perfect 😋 It also goes well with hot grilled eggplant 😆 Yum! Food goes too well with sake👍✨
