2024-08 Souvenirs from a trip
When I was looking for local products on my trip to Niigata, I was told that there was a bottle of raw sake available.
I was told that it was very rare to find it outside of Niigata.
On the first day, it was refreshing yet exquisitely balanced, which was good. However, by the third day, the aroma was like water.............................recommended to drink it quickly.
First day: ★★★★
3rd day ★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
Day 7 ★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
Overall 3.1
Easy to drink sake!
Dry and refreshing, with little feeling of being stuck on the tongue or throat. I enjoy it with sashimi, pickles, and fried octopus and squid. Good.
First Green River 🟢.
The taste of rice on the palate with a clean aftertaste.
Yes, this is a very light and refreshing sake 🍶.
I paired it with cream cheese today to neutralize the richness and increase the sweetness.
At first, the palate is fruity and sweet. After a few sips, the flavors seem to disappear for a moment, but then the umami flavor emerges from the depths. It quickly disappears without a moment to linger in the aftertaste. It has a light summery flavor.
