Aburacho Brewery Kaze no Mori ALPHA5 Heated SAKE Exploration 80% Akitsuho, Nara Prefecture 14% (with a minimum of 2.5 liters) Appearance Slightly greenish yellow No nigorigo Carbonated with bubbles Top Notes iodine and green laver when fresh from the refrigerator Aroma Banana, oily dairy, maple syrup, and a hint of espresso after the temperature range is raised. Fruity aromas, but I can't tell. Flavor Cold, the first thing you notice is a light sourness, later sweetness and a hint of bitterness, well balanced. When heated, the acidity becomes more pronounced, making it slightly difficult to drink. Best when cooled (10-20℃), it has a bitter taste but still has body, making it suitable as a mid-meal drink. Body Lightly carbonated and pleasant to drink when cold. Medium-bodied when cooled and warmed, it has a moist body that masks the mouthfeel. Overall impression Best served warmed or chilled I thought it would go well with seaweed, but it didn't. I'd like to try it with sashimi Matching Meals Steamed Chinese cabbage, steamed pork and steamed beef Seasoned laver (strong flavor)
