酒記「しゅき」
Aromatic and elegant sweetness.
Perfume-like aroma. When freshly brewed, the aroma of green apples and pears, combined with the rush of alcohol and bitterness, gives it a refreshing feeling like the winter sea.
As it settles in the glass, white peaches show their face, and the sweetness and roundness of white peaches can be felt.
The taste is silky and sharp.
The taste is silky and sharp, with a strong sense of gas. The bubbles are fine but grainy.
It has a minerality and a fullness.
The sweetness and umami are accented by the bitterness at the end. The acidity that appears in the middle does a good job.
It is dry, yet light and fruity.
The combination of nigori's fullness and effervescence makes it a sake that makes you want to swallow it in gulps.
The lactic acidity is not so strong. There is a lingering aftertaste at the end of drinking, but it is cut off sharply.
The bitterness is good. The sweetness is like a drop of saturated sugar water.
The bitterness becomes more pronounced with time. It will be gorgeous and ready to drink within 2 to 3 days after opening.
If you want to enjoy it with a meal, warm dishes are best. A hot pot of grated radish is exceptional.
