Amakoku. Acidity. Classical. I like the sweet honey acidity. I like the old sourness. This is a sake that divides opinion. 88 points.
Sweetness: 3.2
Acidity: 4
Dryness:2.4
Hinted aroma:3
An experimental item made from a red (black) variety of rice. Promising profile: saffron, ginger, pomegranate, mountain ash. But very sweet, for such a profile it needs of course fermentation to the end, to dry. There is even a nice acidity in the finish, good. After an hour it opens up into prunes
It is a fruit-like sweet and sour sake made from ancient rice (red rice).
It is not an old sake, but a fruit sake.
Rice used: Red rice / Gohyakumangoku
Alcohol content: 14 to 15 degrees Celsius
Red sake from a type of ancient rice. My first thought was, "this is like the port wine of sake", kind of a strong particular flavor. It was in the "unusual" category and was certainly unusual indeed.
NYC has some great sake bars!
Made from ancient rice (purple-black rice)
Looks red and impressive, tastes like sweet red wine...
It tastes like sweet red wine... I hear it tastes good even when heated.
It's a house drink 🎵
My friend gave it to me!
'I got it as a gift, but I don't drink it, so I'm going to drink it.'
It's from a long time ago.
Manufactured about 2 years ago!
The aroma is pickles! Yomei wine? Shaoxing wine? It tastes very sour.
I drank it for the first time...?
Was it stored badly? Does it taste like this to begin with? It's hard to say.
Good evening Ao 🍶.
I too like Ineman, a sweet and sour slightly weird drink, but the color is a bit brownish 😅.
I thought it would have a bit more reddish color of red rice 🤔
Good morning, Matsuchiyo-san 😃
You're right, compared to the color of the sake in your post, mine is not red but brown 😭.
I'm not good at sour type, pickles 🤢.
Matsuchiyo-san, you are a pervert sake lover 🫶😁.
