Sake My Life
Limited Junmai Daiginjyo TANKEI
Shinshu Meizo, Ueda City, Nagano Prefecture
As the label explains, it has a strong ginjo aroma.
The aroma alone is pleasant.
The taste is sweet, and the umami spreads firmly in the back of the tongue. The aroma has a subtle hint of that unique Yamagata ginjo aroma. This is delicious.
The aftertaste is a bit bitter, so I expect it will turn into something more if it is left a little longer.
I would like to pay attention to Nagano's sake from now on.
Please try it.
