New Deal Colors' "earth" Earth
It does have an earthy flavor, with a slight effervescence, a bit of bitterness compared to the previous cosmos and ecru, and a hint of pear.
Unfortunately, there was not much flavor, the aroma was not strong, and it did not have the crispness of wine... It was a bit like not knowing what to drink.
The taste is a little pale.
Also known as "ecru".
This is the bottom line using Akita-born sake rice "Sake-komachi". Like Lapis, it is polished using "flat polished rice". The unique, clean taste of Sakekomachi, reminiscent of melted snow in cold regions, can be enjoyed. As an entry-level model, we hope many people will enjoy this sake.

Seasonal limited-quantity product (from February) of the brand "Higashitsuru" made by the Higashitsuru Sake Brewery in Taku City, Saga Prefecture.
This sake is brewed using "Shunyo," a rice that is currently the focus of much attention.
This sake rice was originally developed as a low-protein rice for carbohydrate-controlled diets. It is said to be low in protein and easily digestible protein (easily digested by the body), resulting in a sake with less miscellaneous taste.
The aroma is also distinctive, with a refreshing lychee-like fruity aroma. The moment you drink it, you can enjoy the sweetness that spreads softly, the refreshing sharpness, and the lingering aftertaste that lasts moderately long.
Recommended by the store because I like New Deal's wines - and it was really good! Great for drinking at home, goes well with a little spicy Hunan food!
