Shimeharitsuru純米吟醸 生原酒
おっ
Shimehatsu Tatsura!
Seasonal Nama sake. Sweet aroma. Slightly effervescent. Soft sweetness. Slight bitterness at the end. It is elegant and coherent. So this is Yamada-Nishiki...
Purchased at a sake brewery.
I was at the Niigata Sake Festival. The booth of "Shimehari Tsuru" was very popular. While waiting in line, I heard from the brewery that they were selling directly to the public, so I went to Murakami the next day.
The next day, I went to Murakami in a residential area a little far from the city center. We were given a short tour of the magnificent 200-year-old building. The exhibition space was converted from a room where labels used to be pasted. Currently, rice milling and bottling are done at another factory across the river.
As a side note, a very polite lady gave us a very good impression of the Miyao Brewery.
