We had all-you-can-drink but also had all the tools to warm up the sake, which I had been wanting to try for a while... It was just as delicious as I had imagined it would be!
Purchased at Mimuro Cedar Festival
The aroma is faintly reminiscent of bananas, but the overall aroma is subdued.
The clear mouthfeel is followed by the spread of rice flavor and sweetness, with a lingering sourness.
The overall flavor is light and mild.
Purchased as soon as the lineup of four-pack bottles was added after a long time.
The ginjo aroma is clear yet gorgeous, reminiscent of apples.
From the clear mouthfeel, mellow rice sweetness and umami, reminiscent of honey, fill the mouth, and the finish is tight with a lingering acidity.
