The first impression is of mellowness typical of junmai, with a full-bodied sweetness and richness. The acidity is low. Despite its robust flavor, the lingering aftertaste is crisp and clean, which is typical of Niigata. Almond tofu, cooked rice, lychee, white peach Lime, Hinoki cypress Compared to Uonuma Junmai Tanrei Sharakuchi from the same brewery, the taste is in the same direction, but this one is more robust. It has such a fruity aroma at 70% polished rice and kept at room temperature. It is by far better than "Kozen Josui"! That is my honest impression. It is sold only in the Uonuma area for 980 yen. I envy the people of Uonuma who can make this their everyday sake 😳.

My first impression was a harsh alcohol smell that rides on the tongue like a pungent odor, not unlike that of a Junmai Daiginjo. Too bad. Saitama is a hidden sake brewery, but I have not been able to find a sake that suits my taste. The aroma is softly ginjo, but it is strange that I cannot pick up any fruity aroma on the palate. It may be the Daiginjo-esque lactic acidity that is typical of Junmai, with hints of white bean dumplings and apricot jelly. Shiratama dango, apricot jelly, lime Faintly green bamboo

It is a light, dry Niigata-style sake with low acidity and a clean aftertaste, but it has a surprisingly rich balance that gives it a solid feel. It is interesting in a good sense that it is made by the Shirotaki Sake Brewery, but it is not like water. Freshly pounded rice cake, fresh cream, and cypress Slight hints of white peach and muscat Compared to Shirotaki Junmai-shu from the same brewery, the taste is in the same direction, but this one is more refreshing.
