Junmai Nama-zake made with apple acid yeast from Hato Masamune in Towada City. Made with Aomori rice called "Mashigura". Polishing ratio 60%.
The acidity is 3.0, which is far above the normal sake level. Aomori is famous for apples, and this sake uses apples to give it an interesting acidity.
Also, the label of this interesting sake brewery is always cute. The labels are always cute. We hope to live a peaceful life in the spirit of this brewery.
We enjoyed the sake in a large wine glass. The first thing you notice is a fresh aroma like white wine, with a characteristic acidity that reminds you of white wine, followed by the umami of rice, and a nice aftertaste.
The acidity level is 3.0, which is far above the normal sake level. I am a simple person who thinks it tastes like apples, so I feel the apple flavor on my own. It was interesting to see how the flavor changed over time. The sweetness and sourness mellowed and combined. Delicious 😋.
