With natural cod sprouts, udo, and butterbur sprouts tempura for the first time this year, it was impossible not to open a bottle of sake.
The sake has a nice aroma and the sweetness of the rice makes it very tasty.
The brewery has long been famous for Aizu Homare, but this is a brand product named after the brewery. It has a gorgeous aroma typical of Yamada-Nishiki and a good balance of sourness and bitterness.
The mouthfeel is melon? It feels like a fruit!
But it is very refreshing and sharp!
I am studying sake and like dry sake! I thought I would like it, but I was surprised to find that I like it soft on the palate, but with a clean, crisp aftertaste.
I am still learning!
