2025 Spring Evening - Tasting New Sake
The second of four bottles set on the round table.
Mmmm, sweet and sour, or rather sweet.
Not too sweet, but sweet
Taste like the astringency of wine
And a firm acidity
The three tastes are mixed together to create a complex and addictive taste.
As the label says, it has a wonderful balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity.
This is the sake that made me realize the depth of sake and got me hooked on sake.
It is always delicious!
Today's sake is from Tamaokyu in Yatsuo, Toyama. It has almost no sweetness, a little color and acidity, and a slightly bitter aftertaste. As a food sake, it is a good match for strong-flavored dishes, and it also has a mouth-wash effect.

Fusion of wine and sake. Interesting attempt. More wine than sake, 3:7 wine. There is a hint of acidity. Cassis-like notes. 85 points.
