I thought I was being careful when I pulled the bottle out, but I let it blow out. The aroma is shwashy, sweet and sour, and apple-like. It has a gentle rice flavor and is easy to drink. I couldn't tell the difference between this and the one that comes out in the fall and winter.
There is a very slight tanginess.
It is like a sweet white wine, with a sweet and sour taste.
It is very easy to drink with its alcohol content of 9 degrees.
The fruity taste on the nose is also wine-like.
I like the taste.
Salmon milt fritters (with anchovy and olive caper pesto)
The milt itself has no smell, but when combined with it, the smell is a little bit too much, so it might not be a good match.
At Le Cian Old Karuizawa during the holidays. You can stay here with your dog, and the restaurant is OK.
There was a bottle of Beau Michel in the restaurant. So of course I ordered it.
It tasted like a white wine as usual. It tasted different with a distinct acidity.
It was delicious 😁.
Thanks for all your comments, Jay & Nobby 😊.
Beaumichel, it was a good deal, about 3.500 for 500ml.
It's an unusual tasting drink, so I don't drink it myself.
But it tastes like wine.
Surprise, it's more white wine than Shinsei lapis lazuli. If it were served in a wine glass, you might not think it was sake. It is sweet and sour, very distinctive, and quite easy to drink. There will be a repeat.
Beau Michelle
Rating 4.4
Rice used: Japanese rice suitable for sake brewing
Rice polishing ratio: 60
This sake was made by letting the Beatles' famous song "Michelle" play. With 9% alcohol by volume, it has a light, refreshing and fruity mouthfeel, just like wine. Winner of the Sake-1 Grand Prix 2015 Grand Prix!
Light juice-like.
It's called "Kijozo-shu" (precious brewed sake)
It is served with ice.
Very sweet!
Like honey
No sweetness
Sweet to the last taste
Serve with Grape Shirakawa
Grapes are sweet, but still very sweet aftertaste
Like a dessert, just the way you like it!
