Tonight, I served it with a luxurious salad of lobster and abalone. Despite its gorgeous appearance, it is a very hard, clean, light and dry wine. It is a supporting player that does not have a cloying taste and does not interfere with the elegant aroma of the seashore. I love the size of this bottle, which is also very comfortable in the hand.
This is Hakkaisan, a representative of Niigata's light and dry sake. It has a slightly spicy, refreshing, and punchy taste and throat, and finishes with a crisp and spicy finish.
Since it is a Hakkaisan, I thought it would be sharp and dry, right? I thought so, but it had a strong umami flavor. Rather than sharpness, it had a soft and beautiful mouthfeel.
Drinking at home
It was so cold that I drank hot sake as soon as I got home!
I drank Hakkaisan for the first time.
It was great!
I couldn't help but finish the 720ml bottle.
