Salinger
I bought it last year, I bought it again this year.
[Aroma.
Fruity ginjo aroma.
The main aroma is sweet and sour, like ripe pineapple and apple.
The aroma is sweet and sour, like ripe pineapple and apple, with a peach and rice-like flavor in the back.
There is also a dry, sour aroma that is different from the fruit aroma, riding on the scent of alcohol.
Mouthfeel
Sweet on the palate. Pineapple and peach.
In addition to the fruity sweetness, it has a sweet taste with a hint of honey.
But it is not just sweet.
Along with the sweetness comes alcohol and acidity.
And it is as sharp as ever.
It never becomes overly sweet in the mouth.
You can enjoy "elegant sweetness" and "gentle sweetness" as the label on the back says.
Fruity and sweet sake.
Summary.
I looked back at my review from last year and there seems to be quite a bit of change in how I feel about the aroma and taste from that time.
I think last year was a shocking encounter.
I think Kudoki-Ue's Jr. series is a wonderful sake that incorporates modern values into the good old traditional sake.
I can feel the enthusiasm and passion of the brewer in this sake.
I think I like that kind of sake.
