Noguchi Naohiko Sake Institute Junmai Muroka Nama Genshu 2021 (720ml) 農口尚彦研究所 純米 無濾過生原酒 2021

expressing its local terroir with rice from komatsu city, ishikawa, and guided by pristine spring water, noguchi toji crafts a sake of quiet distinction — unpretentious, yet deeply satisfying, the kind you reach for after a long day. floral and mellow on the nose, with delicate japanese citrus notes, the palate reveals a light, smooth transparency. gentle acidity and a subtle bitterness frame a core of concentrated umami, leading to a lingering finish that recalls steamed rice and white flowers. a sake both restorative and refined, perfect for unwinding after a long, arduous day at work.
