It has been a while since I drank Takachiyo. A few years ago, I gradually moved away from this type of sake, drinking simple junmai and matured sake with warmed sake, but this year I started drinking it again, thinking that my taste buds might become unbalanced.
I was told that each color of the label represents a different fruit. Is this label a grape?
The aroma at the entrance is gentle, reminiscent of rice malt.
In the mouth, it is not the sweet and juicy "Takachiyo" that you remember, but a crisp acidity that comes to the fore and brings a good amount of rice sweetness. The sharpness is firmly held by the acidity, mixed with a slight bitterness.
Surprisingly, it has a dry finish. My impression is that the focus is on the acidity rather than the sweetness and juiciness. Delicious 🍶.
It was another good experience that the taste was different from what I expected ✨.
