Nihonjin no Wasuremono

nihonjin no wasuremono
Nihonjin no Wasuremono from Bunraku brewery in Saitama Prefecture, junmai yamahai, SMV +5. The given translation for the name is “Forgotten Japanese Spirit”, but once again, I prefer my probably incorrect version: "That which the Japanese forgot." Rich rice-y aroma, creamy, floral, a bit of nuttiness, nice fleshyiness, good acidity, especially on the finish, and surprising clean-tasting for a Yamahai… not at all funky … though I miss a little bit the funkiness, this is really quite good…
