Gorgeous aroma of muscat and white flowers.
Juicy-sweet compared to its spicier predecessor.
(A little light in the Amabuki sense?).
The rice flavor comes later, and then the sizzling flavor.
The back palate has a smooth acidity and bitterness,
It finishes pleasantly while leaving a lingering aftertaste.
Medium-bodied.
Taste: 3/5 stars.
We had a sake party at Sake Yume, an all-you-can-drink sake bar in Dogenzaka, Shibuya, which opened earlier this summer.
It is a +12, but it has a nice rice flavor and softness that makes it perfect as a mid-meal drink!
It has a nice crisp aftertaste.
Rice: 100% Yamadanishiki from Saga Prefecture
Rice polishing ratio: 60
Alcohol content: 1
Sake meter: +12.0
Sake Yume Shibuya
late growing wet-land rice variety, often used in sake production
9/20
It's quite bitter and I don't like the taste that much.
There's enough Oumachi in it, but it's not for me.
Nice to meet you Mr. Brewer.
I bought the jackets. lol.
The brewery brews Natsuhonoka from Kagoshima prefecture with home-grown rice polished to 50% and brewed with oshiroibana flower yeast.
This is an unfamiliar word to those of us in the Kanto region, but I wonder if this is where the gorgeous aroma and light mouthfeel come from.
In a good sense, it is a bottle of sake that is not like sake.
