Treasured Grand Old Wine 1986
Yellow gold like white wine.
Very advanced maturation aromas of burnt soy sauce, beeswax, brown sugar, and shiitake mushrooms.
The same can be said of the overtones, which are the most advanced of any commercialized old sake.
The acidity has dissolved away.
It is dry from the attack, with a flavor that spreads gently and a bitterness with a grip.
The texture is rounded through aging, and then further aging seems to have trimmed away the luxurious flesh.
Old wine aged for 35 years.
It seems to have been aged at a temperature that is not ice temperature, but not room temperature like Daruma Masamune, and the complexity has increased greatly, but the taste is somewhat controlled.
I don't think there's much more to come, and as an old sake, I think it's best to stop drinking it now. KaoriThe color is a golden yellow, like that of a white wine.
The aroma is very complex, with fresh acidity of lemon and other citrus fruits, shiitake mushrooms, elements reminiscent of the flavor of broth, and a fresh wood-like aroma.
On the palate, the sweetness is moderate, but the texture is slightly thick and smooth. The umami element is surprisingly light, with a sharp and bitter aftertaste. The aftertaste is still very long and lingers on the tongue. にしかわImanoura Daiginjo in Shizuoka!

Raw sake with a round feel, easy to drink and get drunk 😋. IPPEI⭐️
