It is characterized by a non-habit, mellow sweetness and a hint of sourness. It has a light and pleasant mouthfeel for a muddy unrefined sake, which may be because it is strictly a "muddy unrefined style" that has been roughly filtered. It is like drinking yogurt.
Sake-like aroma, mellow mouthfeel, then a strong alu feeling. The taste is quite refreshing. Umami and a hint of sourness. The label says it is a prized treasured sake, and yes, it is delicious.
It may be different from the trend nowadays, and it is not Junmai standard because it is also alsoderated, but it is nice.
My wife bought this bottle at a brewery during our spring tour of Tokaido sake breweries.
As an aside, this spring we attacked from the Lake Biwa side along the Kusatsu line, and the Takeuchi Sake Brewery, which we suppressed at the beginning of the tour, unexpectedly closed its business. There were several fruit liqueurs that were delicious, and I should have bought Ai-chan with an AI-generated label...
Nf bapak, good evening 🦉.
I'm so sorry to hear about Takeuchi Sake Brewery 😢I'm also looking for the undrinkable label of Meitetsu at a liquor store in Shiga, but so far I haven't come across it...
I buy this cup of sake every now and then 😁.
Good evening, Pon-chan. I was thinking of taking the 300 yen all-you-can-drink challenge next year... and my wife is disappointed too. I bought the Shang Izumi and Yuzu at a pitiful price on Rakuten, so I bought them inconspicuously 😂.
It has a high alcohol content of 20 degrees, which is high for a sake, and it is also an unusual type of sake, a honjozo nama sake.
It has a crisp taste with the flavor of rice spreading through it. As you drink it, you start to feel the high alcohol content and feel that you should not drink too much.
Droopy and dense, no longer fine porridge.
It has a koji flavor like amazake (sweet sake).
However, it is surprisingly not persistent.
Neutral rice.
It can be gently accompanied with the entrée.
(Umaa!
My favorite 4/5
