Kirakucho新酒活性生酒純米にごり
マディ
Purchased a bottle at a neighborhood tasting.
Because it was an active unpasteurized sake, it could not be tipped on its side and could not be stored in the refrigerator, but since it was the season, I kept it in the bottle at my front door. I divided it into 4-gou bottles and kept it in the fridge. Since it is nigori sake, it was well separated into the supernatant and the lees portion when it was divided into smaller bottles.
The supernatant part was cooled down to a light effervescence. It gives the impression of being sweet with low acidity. The lees portion is thick and viscous, but it has a strong sweetness and a strong umami flavor, and in addition, the impression is of a high alcohol content. It can be enjoyed in various ways, such as by mixing the supernatant and the lees in moderation. I heard that the lees part tastes great hot, so I will give it a try at the end.
