Pale amber in color, like a whiskey splash.
Vinegar-like aroma, but relatively mild.
The acidity is overwhelming. It is more like Shaoxing sake than sake. It gives the impression of a young Shaoxing sake with a strong acidity.
It was a sake that lived up to its description as unique.
It has a strong acidity that sets it apart from other sake. It reminds one of grapefruit. It has a peculiar taste, and you will never get tired of drinking it.
Just out of curiosity...sour! Lemon juice!
This guy is a Pokka Lemon! Including the bitterness.
...When you hold still, you can slowly taste the flavor and sweetness.
It tastes like blue peaches.
Interesting. Delicious.
A very acidic and strange kind of lemon.
If you are okay with Pokka Lemon, you might want to try this.
According to one of our regular customers who is a sake researcher
"San Q was just right when mixed with Mitsuya Cider."
I would like to try it.
It is unexpectedly light, almost like calpis. Perhaps because it was still cold, the unique bran smell of mai-bijin was subdued. It reminded me of Kawatsuru's Sanuki Kuraudei.
The acidity spreads in the mouth first, and it is a powerful taste of nama sake.
It is not easy to drink for those who are not familiar with sake, but as the brewer says, it goes well with dishes with strong flavors.
