I'm sorry, but the order of my submissions is all over the place.
The fifth sake I had yesterday was Tatsuzumi.
I wish I could tell my past self, who honestly thought that sake tastes similar and is the same, that it's totally different. ❣️
But it's hard to remember unless I record it right there and then.
Ihyakumangoku.
It is crisp and clean, but the pungent and umami richness comes through in the mid-palate.
It is pushed through to the back half of the mouth!
Smells like strong sake.
Ripe fruit in the bottle with a mellow taste of rice.
The alcohol is strong and powerful.
The flavor is full of richness and fullness.
It goes well with savory mixed nuts.
Taste 3.5/5
15°, 63%, refreshing (herbal? Alcohol?) The aroma is clean (herbal? alcoholic?), the flavor and richness are like junmai sake, and the second half of the bottle is slowly becoming slightly spicy.
