The day I felt the spring breeze, we met again 😂The sake that started it all for me, "Kazan Zozen".
Kazezan Zozan, the sake that started it all for me.
I recommend drinking it at room temperature!
I had it in the fridge, so I started drinking it when it was about snow cold. It has a sharp citrus and freshness from the first sip. Slightly gassy. Delicious! However, it certainly seems a little different from last year.
Drink slowly and the temperature rises to room temperature. The mouthfeel becomes mellow and sweet. It tastes like white grapes. However, the sharpness of the aftertaste is not so different!
Last year, it was fire-aged, but I remember that it had a sweeter sake punch on the palate and a sharp aftertaste.
This year, the crispness of the aftertaste leaves a refreshing lemon-like acidity.
I wonder if it will be available in the next month or so. I'm also looking forward to the fire-brewing. I wonder if I can buy it at the right time?
I couldn't find the character for "sozan" in Kazan-zozan, so I searched for it on the Internet. I liked this character. (4th photo)
