MIRROR🍎MIRROR is an unfiltered unpasteurized sake from Shirasugi Shuzo in Kyotango City, Kyoto Prefecture.
Shirasugi Shuzo is the only brewery in Japan that specializes in brewing rice.
This time, the sake is made with Association 77, a yeast with high malic acid productivity, so the name "Mirror Mirror" is derived from "Kagami yokagami," which is a reference to Snow White!
This sake won the highest gold medal (out of 55/1054 sake) in the premium junmai category at the "Taste in a Wineglass Sake Award 2023".
The exterior is a brilliant clear crystal.
The aroma is of ripe sweet apples🍎 with hints of whey and koji acidity. With the added freshness of alcohol, the sweet and sour freshness has a nice feel.
The first sip is a rich sweetness that is pure and gentle, and it disappears with a light sourness.
The richness is balanced with a refreshing and good balance.
As you continue to drink, the sweetness is accompanied by an acidity that is refreshing and sweet and sour, with a sweet finish.
Rolling over, the acidity leaves and soft sweetness can be felt.
It is quintessentially delicious.
It is more refreshing than kijoshu and perfect for an aperitif.
Thanks for the treat 🍶.
