Location Kamikita-gun, Aomori Rice type Kabukiyuki Type of Sake Special Junmai Rice polishing 60 Alcohol content 14-15°. Yeast Sake Degree Acidity White malted rice used Rating(scale 0-3) (Item) Wine glass (Aroma) +1 Sweet steamed rice aroma (Appearance) Crystal (Taste) Taste Body 1.5 Acid 2 Sweetness 1.5 Umami 2 Bitterness 1.5 Aftertaste: clear, acidity lingers on the side of the tongue Impression: Clear, umami, dry The aroma is subdued but sweet. The use of white malted rice led me to think it would be a sharp and sour sake, but the mouthfeel is clean and umami. The acidity is not a top attack, but rather a timed sensation of stimulation on the side of the tongue that comes later, and is not sharp, but rather supports the umami of the base. The white malted rice does a good job without being deliberate. The balance of sweetness is also very good, with a lingering taste of white peach. Repeat Score 2.5 This is a bottle with a very high degree of perfection as a "white koji summer sake with not too much acidity" that harmonizes the "white koji arrangement of modern junmai" and the "softness of Hanafukuyuki. With an alcohol content in the 14 degree range, it is an all-purpose type of sake that can be enjoyed all night long without being heavy.
