The balance of sweetness and bitterness is exquisite.
The sake has a surprisingly heavy texture, but the tanginess of the aftertaste accentuates it and keeps it from being too heavy.
It is interesting to note that as it reaches room temperature, the full-bodied sweetness increases.
This is a satisfying bottle recommended for those who are not satisfied with fruity, refreshing sakes.
Polishing ratio 55%, alcohol 16%, 100% Bizen Omachi.
As stated on the label, this sake is well-balanced and delicious.
We were impressed by the technique of this sake, which is gaseous and raw, yet shows various changes with the passage of time in a good way!
Two Rabbits, now carried at a liquor store near you.
It's been a while since I've had a drink at home 🐇.
I imagined it would taste beautiful because of the Yamada-Nishiki, but it was surprisingly a little peculiar?
It smelled like brown rice on the palate!
It tastes like a lot of things, I can't describe it well 😅 but it has a strong umami and is delicious 🥰.
Junmai Daiginjyo Aizan 48 Nama Genjyu, a seasonal limited edition from Nitoshi, a famous sake brewed by Maruishi Brewery, a long-established brewery in Okazaki, Aichi Prefecture.
We will enjoy this today in the afternoon.
This is a luxurious bottle of junmai daiginjo-shu carefully brewed with 48% polished rice from "Aizan," a rare and popular variety of sake rice that is also called the diamond of sake rice, and bottled in its unblended state.
It has a sweet aroma that is gorgeous from the moment you first taste it. In the mouth, the mellow aroma unique to Aizan quickly spreads along with its delicious flavor. The dense texture has a pleasant acidity that forms a crisp flavor.
You can enjoy the beautiful changes that occur when the wine comes into contact with air, from the cold, gorgeous Ni-Rabbit after opening, to the mellowed Ni-Rabbit after a little time at a higher temperature and contact with the air.
A wine glass goes well with it.
