Niigata sake is often described as "light and dry," but this one has a robust "sake-like" flavor that is very typical of local sake. This is a junmai ginjo from Naebayama, a representative brand of the Naeba Shuzo brewery, which has had a brewery in Tsunan-cho, Naka-uonuma-gun, located on the border with Nagano Prefecture in the southwestern corner of Niigata Prefecture for over 100 years. The koji rice is Gohyakumangoku, and the hanging rice is Koshibuki, using melted snow water from the town, which is home to one of the 100 best waters, Ryugakubo. Even though it is a ginjo-shu, it is also delicious lukewarm.
