ねむち
On my way home, I checked my smartphone to see if any sake breweries were in the department store, and found that Kamotsuru was there, and I was curious about their sake made with Hiroshima Nishiki, so I decided to drop by.

Junmai Daiginjo Hiroshima Nishiki
I asked if they had any Junmai Hiroshima Nishiki, and was told that Junmai is only available at restaurants, so they let me try this one.
It has a firm and impactful umami, a little bit of the old wildness, 38% polished but with an unrefined complexity.
Hiroshima Nishiki is a revived rice and the yeast is Kamotsuru's original No. 5 yeast. Both of these sake are made with a new look at things that are no longer in use.
Junmai Daiginjo Futatsuru
Sake with a refreshing aroma and a fruity and umami taste. 32% polished. I forgot to take a picture of it, but you can see it on the edge of the two photos.
Junmai Daiginjo Daiginbo
The mouthfeel is clean and transparent, but with a hint of sake on the palate.
I was afraid they let me drink all this expensive stuff... I'd like to try some Hiroshima Nishiki Junmai.
