We have opened a bottle of Senkohana Senkohana.
We drank the last of the Kabutomushi the other day, and now that most of the summer sake has disappeared from the fridge, it is time for the Senkohana, which signals the end of summer.
The label on the back of the bottle reads, "Do you have anything left to do in the summer? on the back of the bottle is deeply moving.
Sparkler is the first assemblage I have ever had. It is a blend of Modern Sengoku Mukonin and Classic Sengoku Mukonin, which were brewed for Senkohana. I should have tasted each of them beforehand and immediately "left overs from the summer".
The first taste was sweet and sour light-bodied, typical of Sentori. The acidity is similar to that of Kabutomushi, but it is also umami and complex, giving it a sense of depth.
It has a refreshing crispness, but there is also a lingering sweetness that lingers on the palate, which is a strange sensation. Is this what you call an assemblage? I am not sure which part of the wine is characteristic of which, and I regret that I left it unfinished in the summer.
There is also a mellow part that is the result of the summer of fire-brewing, which makes us feel the loneliness of the end of summer and the anticipation of the season of abundant harvest.
This year will be the last year for this recipe due to the return of Edo from this season. How will next year's sparkling fireworks be made and how will they taste? We are looking forward to it.

Jay & Nobby, thanks for your comments!
There are so many things, both drinking and otherwise, that I wish I had done when I think back on them😅.
Fall is shorter than summer and we want to spend it without regrets 🍂.
