Nichinichi Kame-no-o AUTUMN. 3rd brewing period.
This is a limited edition brewed with special Kame-no-o from Sakura City, Tochigi Prefecture, which was given to us by Senkou. It was then stored in ice temperature for another 3 months before finally being corked.
It has a gentle, melon-like heady aroma, and even after aging, it still has a gaseous feel to it. The flavor is well balanced by the aging process, and a three-dimensional flavor spreads through the bottle. The lactic acidity from the sake's raw yeast origins is slightly noticeable, but the elegant acidity takes over the aftertaste, while the umami lingers on the palate.
It is recommended that this sake be warmed up, so we tried heating it up and found that the umami opened up vividly, and combined with the beautiful acidity, it was outstandingly delicious!
