Kame-no-O Junmai Daiginjo Transparent with a slight yellow tinge Aroma like cooked rice for a 40% polished rice Mild but typical aged aroma like matured cheese, beeswax and shiitake mushrooms Slightly sweet on the attack, but dry overall. The texture is full and rich. First PP tops in 2016 with 10 years of aging, Kusumi Shuzo's Jun Dai standard At 4,000 yen, this is a reasonable price for a flagship, yet it is an honors sake with few flaws like some of the more expensive second-hand sake breweries in recent years (although the direction is different from that of the gorgeous fragrant sake). It has been three years since it was released from the warehouse, so you can enjoy the sense of maturity and the cost performance is extremely high. On the other hand, it is a classic Niigata sake (not a cheap light dry sake, but a high-end sake) with rich umami and mild raw material aroma, so it does not follow the recent trend.
