I was wondering what the name of this sake was 😅but a sake store owner who knows the brand well told me that it is not the so-called "ominous god of death" but "Shinigami" from a popular rakugo storytelling performance. The ending may differ depending on the performer, but it doesn't seem to be the disturbing sake I thought it was. The four-pack is "Ura Shinigami" and the one-pack is "Shinigami. The "Shinigami" is a single-bottle because it is said to be liked or disliked by different people, while the "Ura-Shinigami" is easier to drink than the "Shinigami. I'm confused with the image.
As a result, "Shinshin" reminded me of Kikuhime, with a sense of maturity and a strong mirin (sweet sake) flavor. But it has a nice sharpness. It is certainly a sake for different tastes. And "Ura Shinigami" has a sweet flavor and sharpness that is not like a daiginjo, in a good sense. The unique alcohol taste was felt at room temperature, but it was taken as a characteristic of the naming, and it became a food sake. It goes well with a meal with a strong flavor.
I thought Shimane sake would be more like Tenjyu or Kirei-me, but I had a shallow image 😆.
