I bought this Sakura Masamune's Moyashimon collaboration label because it was tweeted on Nihonya's Twitter (now X) and I kind of wanted it. I read about "Moyashimon" a few years ago, so I'm not a long-time fan 😓.
The first day I drank it, my impression was that it was a classic sake and I wasn't very good at it (I didn't have high expectations for what was in it to begin with), but on the third day of drinking it as a food sake, I found it to be quite good without the bad parts that I find in classical sake. But I'm not sure I'd still be willing to buy it.
A gift from my wife in Kyoto.
It tastes like a delicious and fruity rice in the mouth, but the aftertaste is classic and sharp! Nada-ku, as it should be! Delicious!
It is a honjozo sake brewed with the fantastic Association No. 1 yeast, which has been revived for the first time in about 60 years. It was a sake with a strong flavor and a good aftertaste. Is this the taste of famous sake from the Meiji and Taisho eras?
I bought this liquor because it is a sparkling liquor with an alcohol content of 11 degrees.
It has a slightly Argo-ish flavor. It has a bitter taste and a sweet aftertaste, and it is very drinkable.
Oh, this is a delicious fun sake. p
There is a woody, mushroom-like aroma mixed with the smell of alcohol.
The umami taste is quite strong, but after swallowing, the sweetness spreads for a moment, then quickly recedes to reveal a pungent, slightly strange taste.
The basic aroma is that of alcohol, but there is a slight strawberry-like sweet aroma.
The mouthfeel is rather sweet, but the spiciness comes out quickly, giving the impression of being quite refreshing and clean.
The taste is typical of dry sake.
Rounded on the palate with a hint of sweetness, but it quickly fades away.
Goes well with strong flavored foods such as nori salt and mackerel.
