This time it is Hyakugakumon Junmai Ginjyo Nama Genjyo, a.k.a. Rainbow.
The characters are rainbow 🌈.
It is a sake from Gosho City, Nara Prefecture.
Hyakurakumon is personally attracting a lot of attention this year,
I brought this sake home when I heard that Mr. Taniguchi, the co-president of the company, would be visiting the store for an event.
The aroma is sweet cotton candy with a hint of apple.
It has a thickened mouthfeel. The juicy sweetness and deliciousness is balanced by the acidity and bitterness, and the balance between the rich sweetness and sharpness that is typical of Omachi is very pleasant.
At this event, Hyakurakumon prepared two types of sake, Rainbow and Sae, and they are both made from the same Omachi, but they are made differently for sweet and dry tastes. At first impression, I thought I would choose the dry Sae, but when I tasted the Rainbow, I was surprised,
The first taste was sweet! Too sweet?
But when I tasted it one more time, I thought it might be easy to drink because it was sweet but had a clean aftertaste.
The first impression is not everything when it comes to alcohol 😊.
Just now at work, a coworker knew I loved it and gave me some Aomori's specialty squid crackers 🦑 thanks 😆.
Ika senbei definitely goes well with Rainbow! Wow, the best!
