Lingering Lactic acidity sticks around, rice flavor remains
Impression: Umami dry with strong lactic acidity
The aroma is subdued, but it has an aroma of almonds and apricot curd, perhaps originating from the sake yeast. The taste is also amino acidic and umami, but the lactic acidity is so strong that it sticks to the tongue until the aftertaste.
This is a must drink with hot sake.
