Colored like a rosé wine.
Smells of hops, grapefruit.
13 degrees alcohol. Light mouthfeel, no fizz, acidity, sour like chewing greefruit, hops flavor, tannin-like astringency, delicious, slightly sweet, crisp and refreshing aftertaste. It's good.
It is light at first, but as you drink it, the hoppiness, a little sourness, and umami accumulate in your mouth and become just the right balance, and you will be satisfied.
I was curious to buy it because it was made from sake rice produced in Yokohama City, Tianqing.
Lately I have been preferring fruity sake, but this sake is not like that at all,
It tastes like a Japanese sake! It tasted like a pure rice sake.
It has a strong taste typical of junmai sake, but it has a clean aftertaste and is quite tasty on its own or as an in-between-dinner drink.
Two days after opening the bottle, the flavor was a little milder, which was also good.
I drank it cold this time, but would like to try it hot next time.
Polishing ratio 60%, alcohol content 15%, 100% Gohyakumangoku produced in Yokohama City
This sake is made from rice grown in Totsuka-ku, Yokohama. It has a nutty aroma, and when you drink it, it has a robust dry taste with a focus on acidity, probably because the rice has not been cut down too much. The sharpness is not bad, so it is suitable as a mid-meal drink.
Refreshing aroma.
Slightly gassy, sour, sweet, and bitter flavors come at once.
The aftertaste is a little bitter, and then it quickly fades away.
It is easy to drink.
The aroma is cream soda type, but it also has a strong alcohol taste, probably because it has 17% alcohol content.
Acid + bitterness + a little astringency. Little sweetness. There is a little gas.
When I drank Tianqing before, I had an impression that it was more umami because it was a future sake...
But it seems to have sweetness when exposed to air.
As expected, the flavor increased the next day.
Ah, it was orikara! I mixed it with orikara and it got more umami.
