Delicious in a Wineglass Sake Award 2024
This sake won the Gold Award in the Premium Daiginjo category 😊.
It has a juicy ginjo aroma.
It is clear and has a slight yellowish tinge.
I will have it.
Soft and gentle acidity spreads in the mouth 😁.
After a while, a moderate bitterness and pungency appeared at the back of the tongue 😎.
The balance of both assertions is pleasant and makes you feel a little bit better 😚.
Tonight, we continue with the big mountain. How is this, following the great acclaim of the last one? When the bottle is opened, the aroma is of sweet grape fruits. When you put it in your mouth, you feel a strong sweetness, which quickly disappears. I wonder if this is the result of the hidden acidity and bitterness. Today, too, I started with shredded cabbage with mayo and spicy sauce. I really like it. After this, the sweetness and fruitiness increases. Yum! The whale bacon/garlic soy sauce combination washes away the spiciness of the raw garlic, which is also good... The slightly sweet stuffed peppers bring out the sharpness of the sake, which is also good. Tonight, too, the night is going to be wonderful.
Tonight's bottle was brewed with my favorite Yuki-Onogami. This is the first time for me to drink it in Oyama. When I opened the bottle, the aroma was irresistible. Fresh fruit. Peach? When I put it in my mouth, I wanted to shout, "Oh my God, it's delicious! The moment you put it in your mouth, it is refreshing, but when you swallow it, the sweetness of muscat goes into your nostrils. It is really delicious. I was tired today, so I had a side dish from the supermarket. It was a bit of a waste. The slightly sour taste of the fried ume shiso scallion brings out the sweetness, and it goes well with it. The grainy corn cream croquettes were replaced with a sharp sharp sake, which is also good! After the leftover mapo doufu, the sweetness is followed by the sharpness, which is wonderful... The grilled chicken liver with sauce is also a nice way to reset the feeling of liver. It was a great sake, delicious as it was, and kept its deliciousness while changing with all the accompaniments!

I didn't detect much of an aroma, but I did notice a light sweetness on the palate 🍏.
I think it is a good sake for a mealtime drink because it has a nice sharpness and does not linger☺.
It was a comparison with the sake we opened together, so it gave the impression of being sharp and dry, but it was delicious ❗
