Aichi Sake.
I bought it at Sake Sento Horiichi's main store when I visited Nagoya in February.
I had originally intended to buy a brand called "Gin" from the same brewery, but I was told that it is now only distributed in my hometown of Okazaki.
However, I had seen this brand here and there at Sake-no-wa, so I was curious about it.
I opened the bottle. It was not vigorous, but it made a nice "kupop" sound.
There is almost no aroma.
The poured body had a slight effervescence.
In the mouth, a fruity taste with lychee-like sweet and sour acidity spreads.
Then the graininess characteristic of Yume Sansui is felt, and it flows smoothly.
On the tongue, you can also feel a light, chili-like sensation due to the micro-foaming.
The gassy, sweet and sour taste and the freshness that is felt from the combination of these flavors seem to have been created with the nama-shu in mind.
It is a refreshing sake that also makes the most of the characteristics of the sake rice.
However, since I drank this after drinking Kintsuru, I would have to give the edge to Kintsuru in terms of umami.
Although it is a little more food-friendly, it can be easily matched with any meal, and its clean taste allows it to be drunk on its own without hesitation.
