もよもよ
Chiba is one of Kanzaki Shuzo brewery's bottles, and it is a raw sake made with Association 77 yeast, which is a high malic acid producing yeast. The use of white malted rice also shows a commitment to apples. Liquid-wise, it is cloudy white.
Perhaps because it had not been opened long, it has a shwashy feeling. It has the richness and acidity typical of nama sake, and is just like juicy apples. It is slightly sweet and very drinkable.
It is like an apple squash, and it goes down well. I think it would go well with light white fish tempura with a dash of salt.
