Yamae Nishiki version of Asamadake.
It has a slightly yellowish hue and a fruity aroma even before drinking.
When you drink it, it is refreshing, but at the same time milky or slightly savory.
It has a complex and interesting flavor, but I wonder what it is derived from.
I wonder if it is from Yamae Nishiki?
Goes well with soba noodles, with its mellow aroma and the sweet, tangy flavor of the original sake that spreads on the palate. Goes well with Tempura Seiro Soba!
This Asamatake was brewed in 2019 and left to sleep in the brewery until now. It is Junmai-shu specs, but considering it is a so-called aged sake, it is also a great cosy sake for just over 1,600 yen. ☺️
The body is slightly yellowish. The alcohol content of 19% makes it powerful, and the mellow, aged aroma and taste are reminiscent of brandy.
When it was fresh from the refrigerator, it had a slightly sharp taste, but it was better to drink it at room temperature to enrich the aroma and mellow it out 🍶.
The only remaining sake brewery in the castle town of Komoro.
A masterpiece by a female master brewer. ❣️
Refreshing and fruity aroma.
The body is firm and full-bodied.
