Why should you take it?
The rich flavor of undiluted sake without charcoaled.
Hyakusyun Minonishiki Junmai-ginjo undiluted without charcoaled from Kosaka Shuzojo is a junmai-ginjo sake with a rich and mellow flavor. This sake is brewed with locally grown Minonishiki and Nagara River subsoil water, which is rich in organic minerals.
Since water accounts for 80% of the main ingredients of sake, and since water plays an important role in dissolving rice, the individuality of "water" is an important factor in forming the "character" of sake. The underground water collected on the premises of the Kosaka Shuzojo has a slightly sweet and mellow taste in the mouth.
This sake is without charcoaled and, moreover, undiluted, allowing you to directly enjoy the complex flavor of the freshly pressed sake. This sake is a direct taste of the Mino climate, and is truly a sake that allows you to enjoy the local flavor to the fullest.
