Denshu, the celebrated brand representing Aomori, has gained a new member, its name: 'Denshu Shizuku Shibori.' This competition-entry sake is truly Denshu's flagship. An aroma of ripe green apple with a dense, milky quality. The mouthfeel is smooth, and the clear, transparent sweetness carries a real sense of elegance. In the second half, it hands the baton to a firm umami, delivering the powerful satisfaction Denshu is always known for.
