The second can of Moyashimon! It's unexpectedly refreshing. To put it better, it has no peculiarity; to put it worse, it has no taste. It is still easy to drink, though.
Here it arrives, the can of Moyashimon! Here is the first cup I chose by feeling. It is quite dry, not like a junmai ginjo, but it has a taste that makes you want to pair it with a meal.
Senbon-Nishiki is Hiroshima rice, right? Isn't it a light Yatan-type rice? I thought it was a light Yatan-type rice, but he hit me over the head with a punch.
It has a richness similar to Yamada-Nishiki, but with a richness that Yamada-Nishiki can't match. I didn't know Senbon-Nishiki was this kind of rice.
The aroma is modest for a junmai ginjo, but there is a definite fullness. It is indeed a Jikin that makes you want to enjoy it with a meal. It is delicious.
A 7-year-old Jikin made with Yoshikawa Yamadanishiki that happened to be sitting in a liquor store refrigerator!
It is mellow, smooth, and has no unpleasant taste. Perhaps because it was stored at low temperatures, there was almost no aging aroma, and the aroma was elegant and gentle, as is typical of Jikin. Above all, it has a strong flavor. It has a strong umami flavor. It also leaves a sense of wanting to let it sit for a while longer. Nice!
In the mouth, there is a sweet Junmai-like aroma, with a slight banana-like ginjo aroma in the back. The flavor of rice is strong. The mouthfeel is clean, but the rich flavor gradually melts into the palate.
A fresh banana-like aroma spreads in the mouth. Immediately after the sweetness is felt, there is a rough texture characteristic of hard water and a spiciness that hits the tongue. The complex flavor draws you in.
The aroma is soft and banana-like, but the taste is crisp and clear in the mouth. In a word, it is dry, but it has more of an impact on the tongue. The taste is clean yet rough.
