Here is a bottle to accompany you this evening. The rice is, Kazenaruko. Is this the first time you have heard of it? When the bottle is opened, it has a strong organic aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you first taste the acidity. The taste of ripe melon lingers in the mouth. A bit of a gassy feeling. Not my favorite type. The bitterness is enhanced when paired with a scallop/broccoli/potato basil salad. The main course was spicy sausage and eggplant stew with Mexican flavor. This strong flavor makes the sharpness of the sake gentle and easy to drink. Sake is interesting because it has many different flavors.
