I'm an old man, but let's have a romantic drink once in a while 🤩.
So here's to Shirakikyu's summer sake with a nice label ✨.
Interesting that they use Koshihikari rice.
Juicy, with just the right amount of sweetness, acidity and gasiness, I thought it was a sake to be enjoyed in a relaxed manner rather than gulping it down 😊.
I want to drink it again 🙆♂️
A dare to finish with a sparkling wine (although I'm going to one more after this). It's sweet and easy to drink, not too much to imagine, but it's just as delicious as I imagined it would be.

Assessment
Ingredients: Milky Queen from Tango, Rice polishing ratio: 60%, Specification: Unfiltered unpasteurized sake (light nigori) with white malted rice, Alcohol content: between 15 and 16%.
The refreshing aroma of lemon and citrus fruits derived from white malted rice spreads, and the natural sweetness peculiar to eating rice can be felt. It has a fresh and well-balanced flavor of light nigori.
The lactic acidity is effective and pickle-like. The acidity is moderately effective against the sweetness for a refreshing taste.
Gorgeous aroma. Fruity, mildly sweet and acidic. The spiciness and bitterness are sharp and the lingering aroma lingers. Koshihikari. With grilled sausage & kraut
The yeast used in MIRROR MIRROR is black yeast. The yeast used is Kyokai 77 yeast. This yeast is characterized by its high malic acid production. It is full of apple flavor! The combination of black malted rice and yeast makes it sweet, sour, and juicy. Delicious sake in a wine glass.
Sweet and fruity like a mango, more of an apple-mango than a mango, with a fresh aroma.
It's fruity, but less acidic and easier to drink.
The sake level is -28, so how much mottled sweetness is there...? I thought it would be a little too sweet, but it doesn't linger on the tongue at all.
The texture and aftertaste exist separately.
