Purchased at a mass retailer in Tokyo, attracted by the label. It was served cold. As soon as I opened it, the aroma that I, a sake novice, imagined was "the sake! The aroma is what I would imagine a sake novice like me would smell like. It is light and has a pleasant taste that does not linger on the palate. I would rather drink it a little bit at a time between dishes than to drink it in rapid succession. Today I will enjoy it with some Japanese and Western snacks and pork shabu-shabu.
I received a souvenir from Kanazawa!
I had told my wife's friend that I like nigori and like bubbles, so I'm glad she looked for it during our trip!
It's delicious with the sweetness of rice and a hint of bitterness from the schwa 🍶✨.
When I went to Roppongi on business in 2024, I saw a Fukumasamune store on my way home and ended up purchasing a bottle.
I was attracted to the fact that it was a "winter-only" sake and a "draft" sake among the various types of sake available.
As the label says, it is slightly effervescent when poured into a glass, and the mouthfeel is pleasant and delicious ^^.
It is nigori, so it has a strong flavor, and I would rather drink it little by little than drink it lightly.
It has a koji-like aroma and a good balance of sweetness, spiciness, and bitterness! It's like a winter sake, and I'd like to drink it in a warm room!
Black malted rice.
It's a little bit smoky on the nose, but the aroma that stands out is almost imperceptible.
I could not tell what black malted rice was.
My condition was not good.
I'm curious about it, so I'll drink it again.
