Shinkame神亀純米清酒(甘口)
おサル
The color is a light yellow, almost colorless and transparent.
The aroma is plump, like that of Chitose candy.
The attack is rather weak and the texture is smooth.
The moment it enters the mouth, it tints the inside of the mouth sweetly and spreads its umami. The lingering finish is rather short, leaving the mouth wanting more right away. Delicious!
It doesn't have much acidity or astringency, so it could be very good for those who like fruity sake like Kaoru-shu, but want to try a new approach. It simply gives you the sweetness and flavor of sake. Sweet sake. Mellow sake.
With a brewing year of 2016, this sake could be called an aged sake, but it is easy to drink without any peculiarities.
I would like to enjoy it with dishes that give me a sense of umami, so I would like to enjoy it with dishes such as stewed morotsu.
It was recommended to drink it cold, so I tried it, but it became more sharp and I know some people like it better this way, but personally I like it at room temperature or so because I can feel the sweetness.
