I like Kamo Nishiki. I like the way it carefully brews and expresses the lingering aftertaste of sweetness and a slight sharpness. I wonder what kind of Kamo Nishiki they will show us this time with Koshitanrei, Niigata's sake rice. Here we go!
The aroma is subdued but fresh and sweet like melon, the brewing water is soft but mineral, the hint of aroma dominates the taste, the sweetness and freshness of melon overwhelm you, and the sharp acidity wraps it up and prepares the red carpet! And with a sharp taste, it was gone with dignity.
As usual, the sake was sweet and delicious, yet complex without being cloying, just like watching a stage performance. I will continue to drink it. Thank you again for the food and drink tonight!
