Hanyokyu Junmai Ginjyo Hachitan-Nishiki Unfiltered Unrefined Nama Sake
We opened a bottle of another sake from the same Hachitan family. Hachitan-Nishiki is a sake rice that is the offspring of Hachitan No. 35, which we drank at Shinomine.
It is served cold.
When poured into a glass, countless fine bubbles adhered to the sides.
The color is clear and transparent.
The gorgeous top aroma that overflows from the bottle mouth as soon as the bottle is opened is a pineapple type aroma. My brother said it smells like pineapple ame juice.
The mouthfeel is fruity and slightly gassy.
On the palate, the richness of ripe fruit and the pineapple aroma is so strong that it is pulled in and feels like pineapple sweetness.
The aftertaste is slightly bitter but with a nice full-bodied bitterness.
I enjoyed it, but it had been sitting in the fridge for 6 months, so it would have been better if I had drunk it a little earlier.
