酒呑ノ鳥居
Tomikunishiki Corporation, which brews sake in Kasai City, Hyogo Prefecture, with a focus on the local area, has introduced a low-alcohol sake for sake beginners.
70% 🌾 (variety unknown, but all produced in Kasai City)
Aptly titled "THE FRUITY," it has an apple and lemon sourness from the glass.
It has a strong milky, lactic acidity that is typical of rice, but the acidity is firm and crisp.
It can be paired with a wide range of Western food. On the other hand, it is subtle with Japanese food.
Frankly speaking, it is a taste that sake lovers may not like, but it is highly recommended for women and entry-level users.
Considering the fact that it is quite tinted even though the production date is 22/12, I have the impression that it is not made from very good rice. That's my impression. However, I felt that they made good use of it and added to the depth of flavor.
