The one I bought at the Kisegawa venue of the Shiga brewery opening event.
It has a strong alcohol taste with a lot of gusto. It has a strong sweetness and umami of rice.
It is better at room temperature, but it is also good on the rocks or with soda.
After a week, it still has a strong alcoholic taste, but I think the sweetness has increased.

There is no mention of it, but it is probably nama sake.
It is not labeled as Nama-shu, but according to the information on the Internet, the label on the back of the bottle says it needs to be kept chilled, which means it is Nama-shu. Am I right?
The rice is Ginbukiyo and Nihonbare.
It also looks like a raw sake. It does not feel as spicy as the sake level, and although it is spicy, there is a good balance of sweet and spicy. The taste is light and refreshing. The spiciness finishes with a lingering sweetness.
There is a good amount of graininess.

There are still many sake breweries in Shiga that I have not tried. It has a freshness that is typical of nama-shu, but it is also very drinkable and does not try to be carried away by the current style of easy-drinking.
