A bottle that had been sitting in the refrigerator since I bought it in 2021 at the Yukiguni Shuho Kanazawa-ya Sake Brewery.
Finally opened the bottle.
Ishikawa's 🍶, first time for me.
It is a junmai, unfiltered, raw sake brewed by the Naohiko Noguchi Sake Brewery.
The rice used is
100% Gohyakumangoku rice from the Matsudo district of Komatsu City, Ishikawa Prefecture.
Rice polishing ratio is 60
Alcohol content is 18%.
Bottling date: November 2020
Shipping date: September 2021
The following is a summary of my impressions of the aroma and taste, although I cannot deny that they are a bit twisted due to the fact that the bottle was put to sleep.
The aroma when the bottle is opened is a gentle floral aroma.
When poured into the sake cup, it has a smooth, almost transparent, slightly yellowish flavor.
When you take a sip, despite the gentle aroma, it has a distinctly strong attack in the mouth.
A light, gentle sweetness spreads in the mouth along with a smooth umami from the aging process.
The taste is rather light and delicate, and disappears quickly after swallowing.
While the depth of flavor is felt, a light lingering aftertaste is left.
Personally, I like to drink it chilled, but the closer it gets to room temperature, the more pronounced the umami and sweetness become. I think it is better to drink it by itself to enjoy the changes 😁.
