酒呑ノ鳥居
The only sake brewery in Miwa, Imanishi Sake Brewery, representing Nara, brews its best sake.
60% domestic rice
The aroma is sour on the top, as if to say that it has a taste, yet there is a mysterious sweetness to it.
Once in the mouth, a floral flavor that spreads quickly, and a complex sweetness that cannot be described as either rice or fruit, slowly spreads.
This is delicious. It is like a head-on confrontation to the recent trend of smooth and silky wines. And yet, it is not too thick or strong, but strong with a sense of transparency.
The indescribable deliciousness is indeed sake from the land where the god of sake resides. This is good.
