I remember the last time I drank Igarashi's Omachi, a fire-brewed autumn sake that comes out in the fall, and it was quite a profoundly flavorful sake. According to your review on Sake-no-Wa, the raw version is fruity with a hint of pineapple.
The mouthfeel is vigorous, with a shwash that is typical of nao kumi-shu. It has a refined ginjo aroma that is typical of Igarashi. As a sake drinker who likes to drink with food, I would be happy if the ginjo aroma was limited to this level.
Wow! It really is pineapple! Amazing! It's rare to find such a distinct pineapple flavor! Like the hana-yosu, Saitama Prefecture is good at pineapple!
From the moment you taste it, you can feel the well-balanced sweet and tasty acidity. The acidity constantly changes the expression of the sweetness, or rather the strength of the sweetness, making me feel as if the flavor is constantly changing. This is probably the reason why you can drink it without getting tired of it.
It is a food wine that can be enjoyed on its own. It has a more profound taste than Hanaoyukko from the same brewery in Saitama. It is also different from the Jungin Jikkumi from the same brewery, Tenranzan.
It seems that Igarashi has finally reached this level. It is so delicious that I am happy. I recommend it!
