Hououmida's seasonal product "Red Label Special" is a special version of the popular aromatic "Akaban"! It is a very limited product that is bottled with a smooth ooze and released as nigori sake. It is an aromatic and beautiful Junmai Daiginjo active nigori sake.
The sake rice is Yamadanishiki, the rice polishing ratio is 40%, and the yeast is undisclosed.
Served well chilled ✨
When poured into the sake cup, the mellow aroma of the sake was very promising before drinking 👍.
The aroma is gorgeous, with notes of muscat and melon! The mouthfeel has a slight bitterness and acidity that lingers on the tongue, but the richness of the Yamadanishiki rice flavor comes through later 👍The effervescence is subdued.
This is pretty much my favorite ✨✨I'd love to drink it with just sake! I would love to drink it with sake alone, but I paired it with octopus with vinegared miso 🐙.
Another day I paired it with a can of raw sardines from Thyme cans in Rikuzentakata 🐟🤤 The fat from the sardines was so thick and went well with the sake 🤤.
