シロタマ
I went to Tokyo this summer on a business trip,
I'm a country bumpkin, so I have a weakness for anything with the name "Tokyo" in it.
My shoes have mud on them. I'll wipe them off!
So there was no way I could pass by this sake, even if it was a mock Tokyo souvenir. I was sold on the sake.
I started with a glass of cold sake.
What's that? It's delicious...
The aroma is gorgeous. The main flavor is acidity, but there is a structure with a good amount of sweetness and umami intertwined between the acidity and the acidity, giving it a sense of concentration. There is no bitterness or pungency. The aftertaste is long but sharp.
Next, I tried it at the recommended room temperature.
I can't tell the difference, but it is delicious anyway.
It is a brilliant attack. Tokyo is not to be underestimated.
(I forgot to buy the thunder rice cake, even though it is very good.)
