もよもよ
This is the first time for Oku to try it, but it was recommended by a sake friend. The Yume-Ginko variety used here was developed in Aichi Prefecture and is a cross between Yamadanishiki and Wakamizu. It is a late rice variety with large grains that can withstand high rice polishing, and is said to produce a refreshing and flavorful sake. The liquor store's sales pitch was "adult calpis with the sweetness of melon," but what was it?
When opened, it was so carbonated that the lid blew off. The taste is fruity sweetness with a little less acidity, like pear and melon. It is thick enough because it contains a cage. It is a melon calpis soda with low acidity, silky and fruity.
A little bitterness comes later on, so the taste is well balanced. It seems to go well with food.
