This junmai ginjo, the first to be released in four years, is made entirely from Akita sake-komachi, and was brewed with the aim of creating a fresh, less astringent, less bitter food sake.
It was a sake with a light and acidic flavor unique to Akita Sake Komachi, which had been calmed down by fire-quenching 🎵.
Quite a refreshing taste.
The sake level is not written on the bottle, so I don't know, but it seems to be on the dry side.
However, it is not only dry, but it still has Hirasen's unique crispness.
I can't stop refilling my cup!
Preference ★★★★☆
Akita Sake Enjoyment Party in Akita
The 13th sake, Yuki no Bijin.
This is also the first time I drank this sake.
The sweetness is light and the acidity is good.
It is not strongly sake-like, but has a mellow, umami flavor and a well-balanced, clean, and smooth mouthfeel.
Next to the Amanoto Natsuda Fuyu-kura, this was a sake I was thankful to have encountered today.
The cool yet warming taste is exactly what the name "Yuki no Bijin" implies.
