Hirotogawa is a special junmai and nigorizake that was delicious in succession. At a liquor store in Otsuka, there were Junmai Daiginjo and Junmai Ginjo, and it was difficult to decide which one to choose. When I asked the manager for a tasting, I found that the Junmai Daiginjo was sweeter and tastier (← vocabulary💦), but I remembered the mistake I made the last time I bought another sake. The tasting was for (1) a small amount and (2) cold. (1) Unfiltered sake with a strong flavor, raw sake with a strong aroma, and aluzoe with a pronounced flavor profile have a strong impact and leave a lasting impression. In addition, because (2) chilled sake is intimately related to clarity and transparency, it is better if the rice polishing ratio is reduced. As a result, there were times when I was drawn to a gorgeous sake with a crisp finish at the store and bought it to take home, but when I drank it at home, I was tired of drinking it. So I finally chose the Junmai Ginjo❗️. It was a nice addition to my daily life ✨A little sweet, I guess the sweetness makes it richer. I've written a lot about it, but from now on, the most important thing to keep in mind when tasting is that you are thirsty at that time 🍷Maybe it's hard to get past that moment.
