Collection Review 96
The slightly bluish black label is cool! Do you ever buy sake that you don't like because of the kanji characters or the name? I don't often buy sake with names like "Kiku", "Ura", "Taka", "Hagi", or "Fuji", and "Yutaka" is actually one of them. But I really wanted to try this Kinmon-nishiki from Toyoka. I wondered if I could buy it, but Koyama-san had it!
The initial aroma was alcoholic and apple. It is a dry sake that will become more delicious from the second day.
I thought the sweetness would expand from the hints of green apple, but it's not that sweet, so I'm surprised at the gap. It is beautiful and crisp, but the strength of the Kinmon-nishiki makes it very drinkable and powerful.
The apple-like flavor, but the fact that anyone can drink it may be similar to the image of Mutsu Hachisen.
On the second day, the sweetness comes out a little, but at the same time it becomes mellow, which is also delicious! It is a type of sake that appeals to everyone, and by the fifth day, the bitterness becomes quite strong, so it is best to finish it off before then.
