Shiga Sake Festival in Otsu 2023⑧.
■Seko Sake Brewery / "Ninja" "Daikoka" Koka City, Shiga Prefecture
Since 1869, the brewery has focused on local rice and pure sake.
Toshiyuki Ueno, the fifth-generation brewer, has taken over the Seko Sake Brewery from his wife Atsuko's family.
We were told to try the junmai ginjo and compared different rice varieties. We also tasted a few others.
Junmai Ginjyo Ginbuki Unfinished Nama Sake] Overall, it has a gentle sweetness and umami, with a bit of sourness.
Ninja PLUS+ Tamae Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Unrefined Nama-shu
The aroma is sweet, but when I drank it, I found the clear and refreshing sweetness to be delicious and to my liking.
Ninja neo Junmai Ginjyo Miyamanishiki Unfiltered Nama-Genshu
It was the richest, but the acidity was a bit strong.
Atsuhime 5-year-old sake
The taste is mild and easy to drink, although it is a bit aged.
Ninja Junmai Daiginjo l'amour
Surprisingly sour and mildly full-bodied.
I wanted to drink "NEO Junmai Ginjyo Nama Gohyakumangoku," which won the Platinum Award at the 2019 KURA MASTER, but unfortunately they didn't bring it.
