Nori
I drank it at room temperature because it was too cold to drink right out of the fridge.
The color is very yellow. It smells like an old brewery. The sourness of the nose and the smell of sake like sieved wood are in full swing. You can tell it's thick before you drink it.
The alcohol smell and taste are amazing. The sourness and bitterness spread strongly to the tongue. The inside of the mouth is stimulated and a little numb. I think it is called spicy. The alcohol content is 15, but it seems to be about 20. The sourness is also very characteristic. Personally, I don't like alcoholic drinks with a strong sense of alcohol, but for some reason I wanted to drink it again, so I bought it. It's a strange sake. It is rare to find a sake like this on the Sea of Japan side.
I also tried drinking it hot. When you smell it, it smells like alcohol and it hurts your eyes.
When I drank it, the alcohol feeling faded and it became mild and easy to drink. The sourness and old-fashioned warehouse aroma spread pleasantly. I think hot heating is the right choice. It's not my favorite, but it's the kind of sake I hope will remain this way forever.
