Body: 2.0
Acidity: 2.0
Sweetness: 1.0
Umami: 2.0
Bitterness: 2.0
Lingering taste: Short and sharp. The umami of rice and light bitterness quickly disappear.
Impression: Classical, umami, super dry.
The aroma is quite subdued with a hint of rice.
It is designed to be very dry with a sake meter of +12, but the umami of the rice can be felt even in the dryness.
The alcohol taste is a bit harsh on its own, but it is quite good as a food sake. I drank it with salted squid and salmon roe marinated in soy sauce, and it went perfectly with them.
It is also suitable for warming up, and since it becomes a little milky, it is best drunk with hot tofu.
Pairing] Goes well with simple Japanese dishes such as grilled fish, salted fish, yudofu, pickles, etc.
Repeat Score] 2.0
