Last year's Raifuku summer sake was excellent 👏.
Thank you so much for your help with the cosmetics 🙏.
This year's was more expensive than last year's, and I didn't know what to expect, so I bought a four-pack just to see how it would be.
It was darker than last year, but still tasty 😌.
I will drink it regularly again this year👍
The nose is clear and mild.
The taste is slightly citrusy.
Like sweet summer or hassaku? 🍊
A summer sake with a thin but silky mouthfeel that is refreshing and just as I imagined it to be.
I had granapadano cheese as snack 🧀.
Polishing ratio 55
Light in weight among Raifuku wines. It has a refreshing minerality. It is truly a summer sake. It is best matched with sansho (Japanese pepper) in this season. Chill it well and enjoy a cool early summer. Sake
Summer sake "Natsurei" from Raifuku, a local brewery in Ibaraki. Unlike Senkou's Beetle, it is not gassy, but it is quite refreshing and can be drunk in a gulp even if you are suffering from summer fatigue 🍶.
Mild, mellow and gentle.
There is almost no bitterness, pungency, or astringency.
I thought Raifuku had more flavor, but I didn't know they made something like this.
This is a good food sake, but if you drink it thinking it is Raifuku, you may be surprised.
I've been curious about this one too 😃😃.
I tried it without any previous information and felt this one was a little dry and dry 🤔🧐.
It was a bit heavy on the palate, with a caramel-like aroma and a rich rice flavor.
Because it is dry, I did not feel any sweetness, but rather a strong acidity and umami.
I am not used to dry sake, so I felt a strong sense of alcohol and not much gas 🤔.
But it was a good opportunity for me to broaden my knowledge of dry sakes.
