タロウ
Sake brewed with Shinryu Nishiki, a new sake rice that is a cross between Yamada Nishiki and Shinryoku.
The color is clear.
Aroma is tropical, pineapple, apple, with banana and strawberry among them. There are not many other aromas. The aroma itself is modest, so it does not give the impression of being sweet.
The sweetness spreads after entering the bottle. Slight acidity, a crisp texture, and a sense of minerality. Bitterness comes later.
The aftertaste is interesting. The aroma that passes through the nose and the subtle but full sweetness felt at the back of the tongue finish the taste pleasantly.
This is a proper sake. It has fruity nuances in a way that is not unlike mainstream ginjo-shu.
