My first Fukuoka sake! I was curious about this brand because of its impressive straightforward name. The aroma is subdued, with a hint of citrus nuance and sourness. The texture is silky and smooth, with a slight effervescence. When drinking it, it is lighter than expected. The soft sweetness and acidity derived from lactic acidity, combined with citric acid-derived sourness and bitterness, as if it were a bite of citrus peel, makes it slightly sweet, tasty, and refreshingly juicy. It is too light and gives the impression of a light Senkou? It is too light and gives the impression of a light Sentori. However, upon closer inspection of the poured sake, one notices that there is some residues mixed in with the slight effervescence. After slowly inverting the bottle and stirring it, we poured it again, and it turned out to be a light nigori like the first snowfall. The edgy citric acidity rounds out to a pear-like nuance in both aroma and taste. Furthermore, as the temperature rises, the carbon dioxide gas and flavor angles are removed, and the wine literally transforms into a sweet and juicy wine. At the same time, the aftertaste is light and crisp, with a light alcohol taste. This sense of sharpness may be the major difference from Sengoku. This is the kind of sake that goes down smoothly, but I'll let it sit for a while to see if the flavor develops.
