しょうたそ
Hi-irei Junmai-shu with a milling rate of 70%. What kind of sake do you imagine when you look at these specs alone? If I didn't know about this brand, I would only think of a thick, classic men's sake... but I was surprised. The aroma is apple, just like the color on the label. At first sip at room temperature, I felt the sweetness. The acidity is almost non-existent, but the rich sweetness and umami are strong. It is elegant. Isn't this a Junmai Ginjo by mistake? It is a quality that can be satisfied even with Junmai Daiginjo. The best part is the bittersweetness at the end, which is like bitter chocolate. Is the brewer a genius? Furthermore, it shows a different face when heated. In a good way, of course. The sweetness, umami, and bitterness are smooth and smooth, and it has an incredible level of perfection. If you can get this on a consistent basis, it's one you'll want to keep on hand.
