Sake My Life
I asked the waiter if he had any soft-water brewed sake and was introduced to this bottle. I wanted to study soft-water brewed sake because a friend of mine had joined a brewery that brews sake with the softest water in Japan. The aroma is fruity and sweet. The nose is fruity and sweet, with some lactic acidity. I was surprised at the lack of stickiness from the first sip to swallowing. The alcohol is also felt to a certain extent, which is typical of standard sake. The taste is "soft and fruity. The delicate balance between the softness of soft water and the fruity flavor is addictive. The ending is well-balanced with a hint of sourness and bitterness. I feel that I have found an exemplary answer to the question of modern sake made with soft water. What kind of snacks to pair with this sake? Fruity sake is difficult to pair with, but I think it would be a good match with fatty grilled fish such as Hokke. This is a bottle that showed me the possibilities of soft water. Finally, drinking this reminded me of Aizu Chusho. That soft and delicious sake is tentatively ranked as the most "surprising sake" I have had this year. I would like to try to find a sake that surpasses it. Please try it.
