Clouds in the Mountains Zaag Zaag Special Junmai
Rated 4.4-4.3
Sake degree -5, Rice polishing ratio: 60% (Gohyakumangoku), Alcohol: 15%.
This special junmai sake is full of fruity flavors that fly in the face of sake. The aroma of Muscat and the taste of Delaware spread like a white wine. It is surprisingly easy to drink and is recommended for sake beginners.
The yeast used, AC95-80, a yeast developed by Kochi Prefecture, is characterized by a high level of both pineapple and melon fruit aromas. It also produces a mild acidity and soft sweetness, making it possible to achieve a sake quality similar to that of white wine, which is easily liked by sake beginners and wine lovers alike. It has an excellent balance of aroma, taste, and drinkability, and goes well with aperitifs and light dishes.
Mellow and slightly melon-scented. Convergence of bitterness or stronger.
