It's been a long time since I had Japanese sake.
Rice: domestic rice, polishing rate: 55%, alc.: 15%
Yamakawa Mitsuo is a colaboration project between 4 breweries from Yamagata prefecture. This one seems to be lead by Otokoyama.
Aroma is mild. Rice and bananas. Flavor is mild and clean. Neither sweet nor sour but with significant umami. Earthy and dry at the end.
Ii is very drinkable and good with food but I expected more from this sake. The artwork on the label is lovely.
