山廃純米A "genius shooter" comes to our house. Mitsui no Kotobuki 14 Dai-harakuchi (Mitsui's Kotobuki 14), as you can see from the brand name, is a big (super) dry wine with a sake degree of +14. The specs are as follows
Rice used: Yamadanishiki
Polishing ratio = 60
Alcoholic Beverage = 14
Sake strength = +14
Acidity = 1.8
Amino acidity = 0.9

I paired this with Engawa's Shio-Kombu-Gai, and it was a nice pairing without the sake smell I felt. If it had been fruity, it would have been even better.
