Urakasumi Tokubetsu Junmai Shu Nama Ippon
Urakasumi's well-known special junmai sake.
The moment it enters the mouth, the impactful sweetness and full umami rush in, followed by a slightly strong bitterness, sourness, and a hint of acidity.
It has a classical taste that is distinctly different from the sweet and fruity flavors that are so popular nowadays.
It may sound contradictory, but it is sure to satisfy those who like dry sake as well as those who like it clean and mellow.
It was awarded the gold medal in the premium lukewarm category of the Heated Sake Contest 2024. It certainly looks good when heated, and the full flavor of the rice comes out.
The recommended temperature range on the label is wide, but my personal recommendation is room temperature.
It is extremely cost-effective and makes me really want to cherish this kind of sake.
There are not many cases where Sasanishiki, which is famous as edible rice, is used as sake rice, but drinking this sake will convince you that it is good for both. It is very tasty.
