Itokawa, Niigata Prefecture. Tahara Sake Brewery Co. Yukitsuru Junmai-shu, natural spring water brewing. Yes, this is Yukitsuru. I had never seen it before, so I bought it at a tasting event at Hanshin Department Store. I had no prior knowledge of the brewery, so I didn't talk much with the brewer. I had it cold. The color was clear, almost colorless, but with a hint of yellow. The top aroma is mainly alcoholic, with a slight graininess. It has a fine, mineral-like mouthfeel and flows smoothly into the mouth. It has a minerally, yet gradually delicious flavor, with a slightly bitter aftertaste that stimulates the tongue with a slight spiciness. There is a little bit of nuttiness in the umami. It is a little more light and dry than other sake, but it is a very typical sake that you will never get tired of drinking. Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic) Alcohol content: 15 Polishing ratio: 65
