Purchased at a liquor store in the city's Omiya district
(immediately after opening the bottle)
Drink cold
Slightly cloudy white
The aroma is gorgeous, similar to that of white wine.
Strong acidity on the palate.
Floral taste spreads next.
Very slight astringency in the aftertaste
There is no rice flavor and it tastes almost like a white wine.
The label on the back of the bottle says that about 6 months have passed since the production date and that it is unfiltered and unpasteurized, so the taste may have changed considerably since its production.
The brewery's website says that the rice used is Kame-no-o Koshihikari, which is a type of Kame-no-o rice, and it seems to be made from Uruchi rice, giving the impression that there is a gap between the taste and the description.
It does not seem to go well with crab miso or tako-washi, but it goes perfectly with cheese.
I would like to drink it with Western food like wine.
I wonder what the back label says about the traditional method of honjikomi (brewing).
