Visit to Kuranosuke Sasaki's parents' house. A quaint sake brewery in Kyoto. It was a 19 degrees aluzoe. We drank it on the rocks as recommended. If you dilute it, you can drink it too much.

The nose is weak and timid. It must be really sought out from deep within the glass. When you find it, it's subtle. Some rice, a hint of fruit like prunes or raisins perhaps. Maybe some peach, but maybe that's my imagination. Palate is thin and almost watery in its lack of body. I struggle to identify anything other than rice, and a dry palate with a short finish. Very disappointing for a JG. Has perhaps taken the Kyoto style too far. I prefer many futsu-shu to this. 1.5/5

Odd aromas, but not unpleasant. Quite yeasty, like cider or white wine perhaps. Overripe apples, some banana, vanilla, sour cream. Plenty of rice and umami underpinning the nose, with a slightly sour fruitiness. Acidity is powerful and tangy. Mostly a rice porridge kind of texture and flavour, with some milk and banana, like a banana smoothie. Once the acid begins to fade, the palate becomes quite dry but with a lingering whisper of fruit. Acid is prominent, but fine. 3.5/5 want to try warm

The aftertaste is refreshing and a little thin. But it's not a habit and I can drink it very easily.

Purchased at the direct sales counter of the Sasaki Sake Brewery. Polishing ratio 70%. Sake Meter +4 Alcohol content 18%. It is described as a 4-step brewing process. How does it taste? It is spicy, but as the temperature rises, the sweetness comes out. It is a strong sake, but the balance of flavors makes it easy to drink.

It's Kuranosuke Sasaki's parents' house. It's mature and mild❗️. I think it's better at room temperature than drinking it too cold! So your brother is taking over now!
