Although it is a special junmai sake, the yeast used is Association No. 9 and the rice polishing ratio is 55%, polished to the level of ginjo, giving the sake a fruity and gorgeous taste in the mouth.
It has a faint taste and aroma typical of ginjo-shu, but it is not noticeable unless you look at the label. Rather than drinking it as a ginjo-shu, it is a good sake to drink as a supporting sake to complement food.
Start with the Arabashiri on the right side of the picture... The first sip has a sweetness, but it is more like a shrieking sensation, and the sourness spreads as the sip progresses.
I posted this on September 10 and will post it again.
Last time I said it was refreshing and had none of the quirks of ginjo-shu, but I'll add a few things... It has a sour taste at the beginning and a bitter taste down the throat.
Purchased at Imanishi Shuzo Omotesando store. The sweetness reminiscent of honey spreads out and leaves a lingering aftertaste unique to Junmai Daiginjo.
Purchased at Toto Co-op. No registration on the Ginryo Gassan product page, perhaps for mail order.
It has a refreshing taste. It has a slightly sweet taste, but it is not clingy and light.
