Nichinichi Sake Komachi.
This series is brewed using rice produced in Akita Prefecture, which was given to Mr. Hidehiko Matsumoto by Shinmasa, a company that took care of him when he was training as a samurai. This one is brewed using Sakekomachi.
It has a mild, yet slightly banana and muscat-like nuance on the nose, with a slight gassy sensation. The sweetness is restrained while the umami spreads gently. The clear acidity gives the impression of a clean and light aftertaste, which is probably due to the sake's character. Even unfamiliar sake rice is completely Nichinichi in the hands of Mr. Hinodehiko!
The taste has a high degree of perfection despite its 11% alcohol content, and we are looking forward to the improved Nobukou version.
