Mikotsuru Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki Unfiltered Unrefined Nama Sake
I compared all Mikotsuru's sake at the "Traveling SAKE" tasting, and I knew that my favorite was Miyamanishiki, but then I realized that I had not had Yamadanishiki, so I bought it.
As expected of King...the price was high.
I drank it cold.
There was a sizzling sound when the bottle was opened. The bottle did not pop.
Numerous bubbles adhered to the glass when poured, and the color was clear and almost colorless.
The top aroma was of ripe, sweet fruit.
The mouthfeel is fruity with a gaseous, juicy sweet and sour taste.
The palate is full of the rich sweetness and flavor of ripe fruit.
The aroma that passes through the nose is full-bodied, with a strong sweetness.
The label on the back of the bottle says that it has been aged for about 8 months, which explains why it is so rich.
I thought Miyamanishiki was the best, but King is also delicious, and it is hard to say which is better.
