Mizubasho Ginjo [1 Koku - 21]


From Gunma Prefecture's Nagai Shuzo, made from Yamada Nishiki milled to 50%, SMV +4, and 15.5% abv. Fragrant cantaloupe with a little bit of Chinese incense. Light but firmly sweet entry, mild pear/apple fruit, honeyed tones, plush yet dry and drying, with good late acidity, and a sweet, sweet mineral springwater finish, that does finish with a bit of satisfying and ascending warmth. Really delicious as it comes to room temperature. Oh my, that's tasty.
