MORIKUNI Mimosa Fragrance Island 2024
A very fruity, low-alcohol sake made mainly by female brewers.
The first feature of this sake is that it is a low-alcohol sake with an alcohol content of 8%, even though it is a pure sake!
Secondly, it is "very sweet" with a sake strength of -68! (Sake with a sweetness level of -3 to -6 is usually considered sweet).
Thirdly, the yeast used is KO15, a Sanuki olive yeast that has become well-known for its strong acidity.
The aroma is fresh and has a slight lactic acidity.
The mouthfeel is smooth, with a very sweet, sour, and fruity flavor reminiscent of fine apple juice or sweet white wine.
The sweetness and umami that fills the mouth are complemented by a firm acidity derived from the yeast, which gives it a refreshing aftertaste without being cloying.
