year-end drinking party
This sake was given to us as a year-end gift from the owner of Hamayu, who has been very kind to us. It has been a long time since I have had a ginjo-shu.
The aroma is gentle and fresh, with a hint of minerality. It has a clean mouthfeel with a sweet and bitter taste, and finishes nicely while maintaining an overall sense of transparency.
While not exactly modern, it matched with meals such as soba noodles, and for the first time in a long time, I felt the goodness of a light, dry sake. It was very clean and seemed to shed this and that of this year.

Fresher than expected
For the record, since it is aged for 3 years, I imagined it to be thick like an old sake, but it was fresher than I expected, and although it had some acidity, I thought it was in the easy-drinking category.

Finally, the day came when we could taste Nizaemon, the highest peak of the Kuroryu series.
I was happy to be allowed to open the bottle from the box opening.
The aroma is fresh despite the alcohol, and from there the mouthfeel is mellower than expected, with a minerality that is unique to Kuroryu, and it finishes dry.
It was so delicious that I drank several glasses and emptied it among my friends. We took the bottle and the box home as a souvenir.

Just happened to come across a freshly squeezed Shinmasa New Year's!
Just from the looks of it, the label and the shape of the bottle are stylish and favorable.
It has the unique sweet and sour flavor of Shinmasa with a touch of umami, and the freshness of the effervescence makes it refreshing and sharp. As I like ecru, I love the umami of Junmai made with this Akita Komachi, so it was a great taste.
By the way, Isopokamui seems to be the Ainu word for rabbit.
I left with a tag with a Chinese zodiac ema design to commemorate the occasion.
