I drank this sake last year or the year before. I remember it was very tasty. I wonder how different it will be this year from the last time I drank it.
On the first day, it had a vigorous mouthfeel with a slight effervescence. The body is more solid than the alcohol content, and this is probably what surprised me the most. Was it like this last time? It seems to me that the thickness of the flavor is due to the origami. They must be making this wine very well.
The aroma of vinegared banana and magic ink is very pleasant, and compared to other sakes, it is wonderful that it is not harsh in contrast to its strength. It is the same when you drink it, and even though it is a vinegar-iso-ish sake, it is neither too harsh nor too mellow, and it has a very exquisite saltiness that makes it unique in its details.
Still, if I had to pick a similar sake, it would be "Abe". It's delicious...I mean, I like it.
From the second day, it gives the impression of being a more solidly structured sake, but it also has the lightness of a 13% sake, which is a wonderful quality.
It was tighter than the last time I drank it, but I felt it had more character than the last time. It is as delicious as ever!
