夏雨Extremely personal taste: ⭐️⭐️⭐️3/5
It's a good sake, full and classic 😊.
Anyway, I was curious about this sake because it was made from the edible rice Sasanishiki.
When I was a child growing up in Akita, there was no "Akita Komachi" and the best rice was Sasanishiki. I don't think it is sold much in supermarkets now, but I was happy when I could eat Sasanishiki as a child, so I remember the nostalgia when I hear the name 🥹.
The sake is a little cloudy, though it may vary from one individual to another.
The aroma is surprisingly fruity and gorgeous.
The mouthfeel is slightly slightly carbonated, with a classic, robust rice flavor and sharp, bitter acidity👍.
The bitter sharpness and dryness makes it easy to go on to the next cup 👌.
The crisp and light feeling of cooked Sasanishiki may be the reason for the sharpness.
It's been a long time since I've had a good old-fashioned Sasanishiki 🥹.
