My first Kamikawa Taisetsu ❄️
The other day, I got this Hokkaido brand 🍶 at Haneda Airport✈️ on a weekday... but I opened the bottle 😅.
When I opened the bottle, I felt the fruity aroma, but when I took a sip, I got the impression that the spiciness and umami are in harmony. ❗️ It has a refreshing sharpness and is almost like a food sake. ✨There may be some bitterness.
It's a taste that can be used with everything from sashimi 🐟 to light meat 🍖.
I think the flavor will change more when it is heated up 😁.
It's getting colder so tomorrow I'll try the second day's flavor change + heated sake 😍.
Day 2ooooooooo!
...and I got home late from working overtime so this is a cold sake only report 😅.
The sweet and sourness has been emphasized, but the spiciness and bitterness are also slightly up: ⤴️
This feeling might have been more suitable for heating up yesterday 💧.
8.5 (8 points)
Ingredients: rice (100% Ginpu produced in Aibetsu-cho, Hokkaido), rice malt (Hokkaido rice)
Rice polishing ratio: 40
Alcohol content: 16% abv.
Silent when opened
No gassiness
Slight melon-like top note
The same gentle aroma as the first sip, the soft umami and sweetness of the rice spread out with a moderate acidity, and the wine finishes quickly with a slight spiciness and slight bitterness from the alcohol.
The overall balance is calm and gentle with a slightly classical feel. Although not spectacular, it goes well with food and is also delicious on its own.
