ぱぱすA pure rice activated nigori sake from Miyako Bijin, a sake brewery located on Awaji Island.
As the word "active" suggests, be careful about opening the bottle! Chill well, stand it up and let it stand for at least an hour, then open it slowly while it's degassed!
Patiently waiting for the bubbles to settle and slowly opening the bottle!
I feel like this waiting time makes the drinks taste even better, right?
The taste is fresh on the palate with a gorgeous, slightly sweet rice taste. The aroma is a bit like sweet sake.
Poured into a glass and waited for it to dissipate, and that's a complete change!
The carbonation curd from earlier has been removed and it's now a mellow, sweet drink! Delicious!
The best part of the active liquor is letting it sit for a few days to mature, but it's so delicious it's a chug. lol
The taste changes as you drink it, so it was a fun and delicious bottle that I would drink again.
It was reasonably priced (about 1,700 yen for a 4-grain bottle), so if you stop by on Awaji Island, be sure to check it out!
