Haneya純米大吟醸 翼
ののさん
I bought it at my usual liquor store after struggling with Hirotogawa's Junmai Ginjo Omachi. As soon as I took it to the cashier, the clerk said, "There it is, Haneya! It's delicious, isn't it?
The aroma is a little subdued. When you put it in your mouth, the juicy, soft and round sweetness spreads and goes to your nostrils. A little later, the sourness spreads on the tongue. It gradually turns into bitterness and melts away as a slightly long aftertaste.
I think it is similar to "Hitonatsu no Koi" of Atago no Matsu.
The bitterness is a little moderate and the umami is added to the aftertaste, which is a little different.
Additional note, as it approaches room temperature, the sourness is suppressed and the sweetness spreads to the mouth.

The bitterness is almost gone and replaced by a delicious taste that connects between sweetness and acidity. Slightly semedyne-like aftertaste.

Most of the acidity and bitterness have disappeared, concentrated into a clear, crisp sweetness.
This seems to be the finished product. It's pretty damn good!
I honestly thought I wouldn't repeat it, but if this is the result I'm waiting for, I'll take a bottle.
