Savanna
Here is the eighth runner-up in the Nigori-lympics. It is said that he is slowly gaining support in the shadow of Hirotogawa Yukidaruma Amami. The bottle is opened gently. The aroma is a bit of sake, but a freshness comes through the nose. Start with the supernatant. Hmm? It is sweet and sour and easy to drink. The sake flavor is not as strong as expected. Mix in the lees. Hmmm? Surprisingly sweet and delicious! I had a preconceived notion that it was like a silky dry, but it is an adult calpis sour with a hint of sweetness. This is easy to drink! It may be better than Hirotogawa when it comes to drinkability (just my opinion). I had asked for meat and potatoes, based on the rule of thumb that Silky Dry goes well with potatoes and pumpkins, but it's totally fine solo. And above all, it's very cost-effective! In this day and age, you can buy it for less than 1,500 yen. Thank you, Sasasamune. The taste is more than good enough to compete with the Four Heavenly Kings of nigori. This will be popular next year... Rumor has it that it also goes well with heated sake. It will be cold again tonight, so I'll give it a try!
