Gisaemon Junmai Ginjo Nama

Dinner at Hwa Tze Xun (花彘醺).

Gisaemon Junmai Ginjo Nama (義左衛門 純米吟醸 生) - unpasteurized before bottling.  Seimaibuai (精米歩合) of 60%. Nose of ripe rock melon, fermented rice (酒釀), banana.  Light and smooth on the attack, but shows concentration and flavors mid-palate, and builds up to a strong finish.  I am reminded of the expression コクがある.
