This time it's Ginshari.
Not the M1 Champion.
Shirasugi Brewery brews sake using only edible rice, and I will never forget the shock I felt the first time I drank their Ginshari.
The Ginshari is a staple of Shirakisugi,
It is made entirely from Sasanishiki rice.
When the bottle is opened, there is a nice "sipon" sound.
The color is slightly creamy.
The aroma is like white wine.
It has a mild mouthfeel, and even though it is fire-aged, you can feel a slight bubbly sensation.
The taste is rather thick, with a bright sweet and sour taste reminiscent of dried fruit passing through the nose, and the umami of rice is gently felt afterward. It finishes quite dry with acidity and bitterness.
Shirasugi's sake is characterized by its sweet and sour taste,
That is what makes it so irresistible!
It has been a long time since I returned to Ginshari.
I want to chew the happiness of tasting rice ^ ^.

Hi Hirupeko, good evening 😃.
I can't forget the impact of the Ginshari-san ‼️ which is a sake made only from edible rice🍶😳I like sweet and sour taste so I'm interested in Shirasugi-san's sake 🤩.
The happiness of tasting rice☺️ is truly silver lining!

Good evening, Jay & Nobby. You may not find Shirasugi sake outside of Kansai. It is made with a sweet and sour taste in mind, based on the concept of removing the notion of rice as an edible food, so please try it if you come across it.
