This is a standard brand of Edobari Sentori, Sentori Modern's Sanshiki Happo-genshu.
As the name suggests, it is a second fermentation sake in the bottle and is lightly nigori (lightly cloudy). It is my favorite type of sake.
When I opened the bottle, bubbles started rising, so I opened and closed the cap several times and was able to open the bottle in about 3 minutes. When poured into a glass, the cloudy white sake bubbles vigorously.
The moment I took a sip, I felt a distinct gaseous sensation and the unique flavor common to Senkou's nigori sake made me think of a snowman for a moment. The taste is complex, with a moderate sweetness mixed with bitterness and spiciness, and the overall impression is bitter and dry.
The Niki Origami I drank the other day had a full-bodied impression with sweetness and umami at the forefront, so I felt it was in a slightly different direction from that. Perhaps it is not simply a secondary fermentation of the Niki, but the goal of the brewing process is completely different.
In this case, I am curious about the standard Type Zero and Type I. I am aware that there are changes in flavor from lot to lot, but I still feel like I need to know the basics.
I am currently in my second year of being a sake lover. This year, I thought that Sengoku would be the minimum, but with the return of Edo, I am becoming more and more interested in Sengoku.

Thank you for your comment, Jay & Nobby 😊.
I was surprised because I didn't expect the same Sentori Modern to be so different from Formula 2 and Formula 3!
I can't wait to try the basic Sengoku Modern!
