アラジン
This is Hirotogawa Special Junmai Unfiltered Nama-shu from Matsuzaki Shuzo in Fukushima Prefecture.
The sake is made from Fukushima rice "Yume no Kou" polished to 55%.
We had it at Fukushima Kofukuya, a standing bar in Fukushima, Osaka.
It is highly praised by everyone at Sake-no-wa, so we will have it with high expectations!
The appearance is clear with a sae-like feel.
The aroma is a sweet ginjo aroma with a hint of banana.
The first attack on the palate is sweetness and umami, with a rich, mellow texture.
Then, the hint of ginjo aroma that rises with the acidity is pleasant.
The aftertaste is finished off by the acidity while leaving a slight bitterness.
As you drink more and more, the acidity gradually becomes more noticeable.
The richness on the palate is light, and the wonderful harmony of sweetness, umami, and acidity is intoxicating.
It is a good sake that does not disappoint, thank you!
I highly recommend Kofukuya in Fukushima, Osaka, where you will always be treated to delicious sake and tasty snacks with excellent costuming!
