Review of the Collection 92
I didn't think it was sold at Maruya until now & wanted to try it, Kurosawa Junmai Nigori. I had never thought of selling it at Maruya before & wanted to try it.
The Kamichumi is quite powerful and has a strong sake quality, which is typical of Kurosawa. When the nigori is stirred, it is surprisingly smooth and gentle. Am I the only one who thinks that nigori that has been hi-ire is overwhelmingly tastier when it is stirred?
The good points of hi-ire nigori-shu are well expressed, and it is easy to drink. It is no longer even like junmai sake. It has a strong sake quality and is powerful, but in a good way. It has a strong quality and is powerful, but in a good way.
After stirring, there is some sweetness and umami from the rice, with a slight fruitiness. However, it is not so strong as to be a problem for those who are sensitive to it and do not like it. It is not so bad when served cold, so it might be better to chill the whole bottle.
It can be served with a wide range of foods. I drank it with pork cutlet for fun, and it was not bad! But I think it would go better with katsudon (pork cutlet served on top of rice). I couldn't prepare it, but I can imagine it would go well with seafood such as fillet of ray or smoked squid! Someone match it - lol!
