ずおとん
It is said that this sake was awarded GOLD (2nd prize) in the Junmai-shu category of the 2025 SAKE COMPETITION. I visited the brewery and purchased a bottle. I am not the only one who wants to try this award-winning sake...
At a liquor store I once visited, I heard that the quality of sake from this brewery has improved dramatically over the past few years. They seem to be gaining in popularity.
The aroma is yogurt and melon-like, with a hint of alcohol. As the name "Umakuchi" implies, you can taste the umami of the rice, and the acidity is just right. The mouthfeel is a bit sweet, but overall it was a dry and refreshing sake. Thank you for the meal 😊.
