Echigo Denemon Junmai [1 Koku - 79]

A junmai-shu from Niigata Prefecture. Gohyakumangoku rice, milled to 55%. SMV +2, acidity 1.4, #9 yeast, and 15-16% abv. Light nose, bit of peanut shell, petrichor. On the palate, again, quite light, both in body and in flavour profile. Very clean, hints of white-fruit-flesh sweetness, but mostly springwater. Easy drinking.
