Sake from Omachi, on the Nagano side of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route. I had thought that Kurobe was synonymous with Toyama, but it is certainly possible to call oneself from the other side.
It is said to be super dry with 70% polished rice, but it also has a fruity and floral aroma. I felt that the advantages of Aruzoe were well expressed in this wine. It is also good without the limeiness that is often associated with ultra-harsh wines.
I would like to try it again to see if the inorganic quality characteristic of dry sake stands out more or if the fruitiness comes out more when it is heated up.
White peaches, mushrooms, lime tree, freshly pounded rice cake, lychee
