A light sweet wine that goes down smoothly and without any cloying flavors.
Well-balanced sweetness and acidity, very refined.
However, it is so light that if you are not careful, you may swallow it without feeling it.
The back palate has a slight bitterness that is typical of Jikin, along with a pleasantly intense umami flavor.
Delicious, but not impressive. Personally, I prefer the special junmai (special?).
The next day, it is still light throughout, but juiciness has appeared.
Balance is still the best!
After another week, it has settled down but still has an impressive sweetness, and it has come out well. Rating revised upward.

Gentle yet fruity, floral aroma
Gentle sweetness, well-balanced umami, and a final acidity.
Although it is fire-aged, it also has the freshness of freshly pressed sake.......is it their policy not to serve fresh sake?
It may have a little bit of a tangy taste, but the taste does not betray expectations. Overall, this is the most highly rated Kunifutsuru so far.
In terms of cost performance, -0.25 from the regular sake.

First Shinsei is cosmos.
The aroma is quite mild.
Fresh acidity that jumps into the mouth
Kiwi fruitiness.
The aftertaste is very light and sweet, but not too much.
Anyway, the impression of acidity and lightness.
Delicious, but I think my expectations were too high.
Is this a wine that should be left to mature?

Soft and gentle acidity spreads first. The lactic acidity is typical of Bodhi yeast. The strong umami comes out at the same time and disappears in a short period of time.
