Sake party, brought by a friend
The aroma is so good that it's almost like the best white wine!
I think it is easy to drink even if you don't like sake.
The second bottle. As a promoter of Nara sake, I was very curious about this one.
First of all, when I opened it and poured it, the aroma made me wonder if it was really sake. It smells like a fusion of grapefruit, muscat, and lychee.
It smells like a fusion of grapefruit, muscatel, and lychee, and it really is. This is the aroma component called 4mp! I was also surprised that this aroma comes from rice and not yeast 😳.
It tastes almost like a dry white wine. It was delicious!
I didn't know this kind of sake existed 🤣.
At an izakaya in Nara.
It has a subtle acidity, umami, and freshness.
They're an innovative brewery that also produces 4mmp and Bodhi yeast sake, so keep your eyes peeled for more!
