This is my first sake from Ikedaya Sake Brewery. It has a high alcohol content of 17 degrees. It didn't smell so much before drinking, but it was acidic and tingling. After drinking it, there was some kind of fluffy aroma that passed through my nose: ❗️
I think I would get drunk if I drank it in small gulps, so I drank it in small gulps.
I will check out more sake from Ikedaya Sake Brewery in the future. ‼️
Unlike most unfiltered raw sake, this sake is not spectacular, but it has a hint of something more. I thought it was of a high level that it was not just a light sake.
Umakuchi type, Polishing ratio 50%.
Alcohol 15-16%, Sake degree +2
Acidity 1.3 Yeast used: Association No. 9 yeast
It is very well-balanced and has a dry aftertaste. It is recommended as a sake that the locals in Itoigawa, Niigata drink often.
