Hiraizumi Yamahai Junmai Sake Marutobi Misato Nishiki Hi-ire.
We will start with a bottle of Tobirazumi, one of the five bottles in the set that was sold at the time of UTAGE's announcement of the major renewal of UTAGE. This one is made from 60% polished Misato Nishiki and brewed in the Yamahai method.
It has a slight yellowish-brown color, a nose with nuances of lime and lemongrass, sweet and sour acidity, and a slightly bitter aftertaste that is refreshing and crisp.
When paired with oily Chinese food, the acidity reset the palate and made for a good marriage!
