We had a hard time deciding between this and Junmai Shiboritate (Kasumishu).
The overall impression is clean and clean, and the alcohol content is not too high.
A little bitter on the palate, but it settled down as I drank more.
I would like to try the Junmai next time.
Gorgeous aroma
Nigori (nigori) sake with a light green apple-like sweetness, slightly acidic, mildly spicy, and a clean finish.
Alcohol 17%.
Sake meter degree +5
Acidity 1.4
Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️
It has a smooth and refreshing taste.
The taste is refreshing, but the umami and acidity can be felt well.
It is an interesting and tasty sake with a lightness that does not feel like 17% alcohol at the moment it enters the mouth but comes with a punch in the aftertaste.
Echino Taka Shiboritate Junmai sake.
The aroma is relatively mild, but has a nice iso-type aroma.
The upper part of the nose has a rounded mouthfeel with a firm umami flavor, which is immediately followed by a tangy acidity that gradually fades away.
When the casks are mixed, the aroma and mouthfeel have a silky nuance.
The taste of the casks slightly masks the 17% alcohol content and the strength of the acidity, and the moderate umami is also good.
While the acidity and umami are well balanced, there is also a slight sweetness in the background.
The finish is exquisite, with a touch of bitterness and a touch of alcohol.
There is a slight bitterness in the aftertaste, but there is also a sweet and delicious shadow here, which gives the sake a good sense of alcohol and sharpness, as well as depth.
It can be served as a stand-alone sake or as an in-between-dinner drink.
