Zaku JunmaiDaiginjo

From the multiple selections, I started with “Saku”. It is a new sake. The pattern is Japanese blue. It is a new sake made in 2022.
It was fermented and manufactured last year, so the year is 2022 because of the difference in the time standard.

The corker

Zaku Junmai Daiginjo

It has a sweet ginjo aroma. Junmai Daiginjos generally have this sweet aroma. To be honest, the aroma is becoming quite similar.

Gulp it down!

Zaku Junmai Daiginjo Taste Evaluation

Zaku Junmai Daiginjo Taste Evaluation

Easy to drink with little cloying taste. Seems to go well with oily raw fish, sashimi and fish.
Because it is a new sake, it has little richness. It is refreshing. Better to drink a little at a time than a lot.
Suitable for aperitifs and mid-meal drinks. Suitable for beginners to intermediate drinkers. For drinkers, a spicier sake may suit their palate better.

Today’s snack

Sashimi

We had a sushi bar at today’s gathering, so I asked him to process the fish. Sashimi. It was a great match and I was able to drink it with gusto.

It was another good day.
