I was told it was a new sake and I got it right away 😋.
White color like a sports drink🤍.
It has a bit of bitterness but a mild mouthfeel.
I thought it would be more youthful, but it had a calmer taste 🤗.
Hi Hiro 😃
From the label this Tenmei looks delicious😍I'm almost disappointed that I missed out on buying it because I have a full fridge 🤣I'd love to drink it when I get the inside track 🥰.
Good evening, ichiro18 😃.
I have the expectation that the Nakadori is exceptionally tasty, which makes me want to drink it even more 😋 Even more so since it's Tenmei for sure 🥰.
The label conveys the autumnal feeling.
I just had to reach out and buy it😅.
The acidity is followed by a soda-like flavor.
I thought I could feel the pungent taste in the back of my throat, but it was filled with a thin sweetness on my tongue.
It is like a melon soda without much sweetness.
As you continue drinking, the rice flavor oozes out.
The spiciness also increased.
And what remains at the back of the throat is the soda taste 😘.
Apple-like, pineapple-like, fruity.
Fruity and sweet is the first impression.
The fragrance is gorgeous and sweet, but the spiciness and bitterness are stronger than the sweetness.
As written on the back of the bottle, it is a "sweet yet dry" sake.
It can be enjoyed as a food sake or on its own.
Delicious.
(I opened it too late for various reasons...)

Junmai Namaisake Nakadori
Rice used: 100% Mizuho Kogane produced in Aizu

The theme of this modest but luxurious bottle was to express maturity, balance, unique acidity, and the transparency that is typical of Tenmei.
The sake rice is Miyamanishiki, the rice polishing ratio is 50%, and the yeast is Association 901, Utsukushima Yume Yeast F701, and Malic Acid Hyperacidic Yeast.
I had it well chilled✨
This is easy to drink👍It has a refreshing sweet and sour taste on the palate, with a gentle acidity and umami flavor🍎.
I paired it with grilled anglerfish. The sizzling anglerfish fat goes well with sake 😆.
It also goes well with Kou squid Yuzu Kosho Shio Sarashi (salted squid with Yuzu pepper), the flavor of squid goes well with sake 😆.
Sake meter: -4 Acidity: 1.8)
Rice polishing ratio: 50% (Yamadanishiki from Aizu)
Alcohol content: 16%.
This sake is easy to drink with a pleasant mouthfeel, making it a good choice even for those who do not like sake. As a dry lover, I find it a little sweet, but it is good to drink chilled or on the rocks with ice.
