Sake My Life

Sweet and fruity from the aroma. This, this, this.
Fresh aroma like apple.
The mouthfeel is juicy-sweet. Not the kind of sweetness you get after chewing rice, but pure sweetness. I like this kind of sweetness. Like Murayu's.
But you can also feel the acidity in the sweetness and it is refreshing.
Thank goodness this size is not sold very often.
I took advantage of the can of Kimi no Ii and put hokke on it, but it doesn't go well with it. It left a bitter taste at the end. I'm still trying to come up with a new dipping sauce that goes well with this kind of sweet sake. I will have to rely on Marie Chiba's book.
Purchased at Nagaoka Ponchu-kan.
