Finally consumed the SAKE POST that arrived in June (lol).
This Yukijaku has a clear throat and slightly dry taste 🍶 It's been a while since I received a sake that I liked, and I found a sake that one glass is not enough 😊.
Oh my 💦
This is beautiful✨
Not just the first sip, but every sip is clean and refreshing.
Even with light snacks, it's easy to enjoy.
No, light snacks are good to begin with.
Clean, transparent. Medium aromatic of banana, apple, cotton candy, steamed rice, a bit flower note. Dry one, Medium to medium+ bodied depends on the temperature. Medium Flavor intensity of steamed rice, umami, smooth and rich, a bit acidity with dry medium+ finishing.
The "Ehime Sakurahime Series" is sake made with "Ehime Sakurahime Yeast," a floral yeast for sake breweries isolated from "Sakasahime," a flower originally bred in Ehime Prefecture. This is a new generation sake made with "all Ehime" ingredients, including rice and water, all produced in Ehime Prefecture. This time, 9 out of 22 types of 4 types will be served.
TYPE-1 Tropical
A gorgeous aroma that reminds one of fruits, with a moderate sweetness and a refreshing acidity. Ideal when you want to be in a festive mood.
TYPE-2 Clear
The taste is clean and soft, and the mild and moderate cool aroma stimulates the appetite.
TYPE-3 Well Balance
The aroma reminds of melon and pineapple, and the acidity is well balanced with moderate sweetness. It can be enjoyed in a variety of ways.
TYPE-4 Rich
Rich aroma and bursting acidity. It has a noble, round and mellow taste.
The first one is TYPE-4 Rich, a sake brewery in Chuyo.
It is easy to drink with a clean taste and seems to go well with strongly seasoned food.

Is it mild on the palate? I thought it was mild, but it is crisp, so it can be paired with snacks that go well with beer!
Does it feel a little alcoholic?

Spicy 😲❗
I screamed at the first sip 😵w
Almost no sweetness, but a strong sour taste 😣.
The bitterness lingers afterward but disappears quickly🙆.
However, as you continue to drink it, you get used to the spiciness and gradually start to taste the sweetness😅.
