My friend from Akita Prefecture gave this to me as a souvenir when she went back to her hometown ❗
This may be my first time to try Takashimizu's Jun Dai 😊.
It has a nice, gentle flavor 😋.
Aroma: red apple and mango.
When drunk cold, the taste is mainly sour and umami with a moderate sweetness, and a touch of bitterness at the end.
When lukewarm, the umami is a little stronger, but the overall flavor remains the same.
The acidity is strong at the beginning, but it becomes less noticeable as you drink it.
Seasonal Nama Sake Version
The hi-ire version is more classical, while the freshness of the nama version gives it a modern feel. Melon-like flavor and slight bitterness. Nama sake version is good!
