【Jokigen Koi-nori Modern Chokarakuchi Junmai Daiginjo Muroka Nama Genshu】

This is a new addition to the Jokigen Modern Chokarakuchi series!

Sakata Shuzo boasts a high level of technical skill, masterfully brewing sake that retains the distinctive Jokigen flavor while skillfully utilizing various sake rice varieties. A new release has arrived in their popular series of sake that are super dry yet modern, and super dry yet junmai daiginjo in specification.

The aroma is fresh and refreshing, reminiscent of green apples and melon. Upon tasting, despite its super dry character, a pleasant umami and richness are present.

In addition to a subtle effervescence that tingles the tongue, a hint of pineapple-like aroma spreads, followed by a striking spiciness and acidity that fill the mouth. The sweetness then swiftly recedes, transitioning to a super-dry flavor with no lingering sweetness, finishing with a sharp, clean cut.

Though dry, it doesn't feel difficult to drink or bland; it's a vibrant sake truly deserving of being called fresh and dry.
