This unique sake is made with 80% organically grown rice, which is not very polished but still brings out the sweetness. Both the rice and sweetness are present. It is heavy.
Sono Kangiku is made by Kangiku Meikozo in Yamatake City, Chiba Prefecture. It is made from 50% polished Aiyama sake rice and has a refined sweetness, refreshing and gorgeous. Pineapple flavor. Delicious.
It is novel because it is made from 100% polished rice and brown rice that has not been polished at all and roasted to make sake.
The grain flavor is like the taste of the earth. It has a strong umami taste and a hint of sweetness, without the cloying taste one might expect from unpolished rice.
The wine has a firm mouthfeel, with strong fruitiness and floral notes. It also has a hint of pineapple and grapes. As a native of Chiba Prefecture, I wanted to try it once. It's delicious.
A light and sweet drink. Delicious. It's like a fresh, rich peach. There is a slight sourness in the aftertaste, and a sweetness in that sourness. Really delicious. Shinsei Generation Ecru 2020
A DRY version of Kaze no Mori ALPHA. It has a crisp mouthfeel with a refreshing fruitiness and sourness that leaves a lasting taste. It has a hint of sweetness that is typical of Kaze no Mori.
Very fruity, heavy and gorgeous. It's heavy, but with a deep sweetness and a clean finish. I think it's the natural effervescence of the fermentation process. It is very easy to drink. Very delicious.
I bought it at Okazaki Shuzo when I visited my wife's parents' house in Ueda City. It is a limited edition made with Hitogochi sake rice produced in Tozawa, Ueda City. It has a very gorgeous and fruity aroma. It is like a juicy Muscat. A little bit of acidity is pleasant.
The moderate refreshing sourness is just like "Suzumisake", which is good for white fish sashimi in the coming season.
It's refreshing and clean, but it also has a strong aftertaste and a sense of gravity.
It is very delicious with fresh sweetness and light acidity.
U" is the Chinese character for "Yu" which means gentle. And "U" means "Umami".
It is a gem with a lot of gentle umami.
I like this very much.
The flavor of the rice can be felt and it has a strong taste. It is refreshing to drink and has a strong aftertaste, so it goes well with strong dishes.
