Amanin Arabashiri Junmai Daiginjo Unrefined Nama-shu 17% 50%.
720ml 1870yen
Purchased at Yokozeki Sake Brewery in Saitama. The brewery is located in an inconspicuous location and produces a beautiful sake that is consumed by the local people of Kodama County.
The other bottle I bought, a special pure sake, was excellent. The Arabashiri is also very promising.
The first sip of the bottle.
There is a little gas. It is spicy but juicy. The fruit is apple, cucumber, and lemon.
The finish is sharp and pleasant.
I tried to check its reputation on the Internet, but almost nothing came up. I found some rather harsh comments, but I thought it was delicious.
Half of the sake produced at this brewery is sold as raw sake, which can only be purchased directly from the brewery, so it is not sold in other prefectures.
It is the smallest brewery in Saitama, so the production volume is very small. I would like to try a fire-brewed sake next time.
