Bunraku's 130th Anniversary Sake
I only know the specs are 30% polished rice.
Gorgeous aroma of apples and peaches.
It also smells a bit like ethyl acetate, the so-called cemedine.
The taste is peachy, mellow, sweet and delicious.
The taste is clean, yet full and satisfying.
The aftertaste is mildly acidic and refreshing.
It's just plain delicious!
It does not have the unique sourness of Sairai, but it is a good sake with a stable quality.
Drinking at Kushie, a famous restaurant in Nishiwaseda. As a resident of Saitama Prefecture, I decided to drink Saitama's sake, Bunraku. It was fruity and sweet enough, and the fact that it was ogara-mi was also good. The sake was poured in large quantities, but I drank it in no time at all.
A refreshing strawberry-like sweetness spreads in the mouth. There is a slight bitterness and acidity in the aftertaste, which is also sake-like, but combined with a slight gassy feeling, it gives the impression of springtime freshness.
