Senkori Maple UA
Pinkish-orange hue
The aroma is mild, with a powdery note like that of white dumplings, despite the low refining rate (90%).
Sweet fruity aroma like banana.
Mild sweetness on the attack.
The taste is typical of Senkyoku, with its bright acidity and juicy flavor, but the bitterness is noticeably longer lasting than in other cuvées.
It may be designed to be paired with dishes with a slightly strong flavor as in autumn.
Momiji, a UA collaboration
The taste gives the impression that the complexity and powerful bitterness have been brought out by daring to use low refining, and it may be a cuvée suitable for eating and drinking from the appearance of its etiquettes.
It can be paired with various types of strong flavors such as stewed rice and cream cheese.
The price of nearly 3,000 yen due to the collaboration is not cheap compared to other cuvées, but it is good to have this kind of quality of sake as a seasonal product.
