Meitomasamune特別純米酒 乙天(超甘口)
一本義 仙介🇺🇦
This sake is from Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture.
I was attracted by the words "super sweet" and bought it.
I have tasted this super-hot sake before, but it was quite sharp.
Oh, from inside the noble aroma like muscat, a rich umami and sweetness derived from the rice came out. It is indeed sweet, but then a spiciness like that of a Hakka comes in. There is no sticky sweetness at all. The spiciness is the only thing that makes the sweetness come alive.
How about if you heat it up?
The sweetness spreads and the spiciness spreads. The spiciness with a hint of astringency rushes up.
From the second bite, the sweetness and spiciness spread smoothly and pleasantly.
The sweetness is not necessarily sticky-sweet, but rather the sweetness is only attractive when backed up by the cool, refreshing spiciness, both cold and warmed. This is an interesting sake. Highly recommended.
