ナナイ
February 14, Sotonomi with my usual partner.
We had dinner at "Fish, Snacks, and Sake" restaurant "Yasen".
Mutsu Hachisen Aka Label" Special Junmai Hi-iri [Hachinohe Shuzo, Aomori].
Contrast of sweetness and bitterness in the mouthfeel.
The sharp, rich flavor continues until the mid-palate.
The sweetness leaves after the mid-palate, and the bitterness lingers in the aftertaste.
When I think of Midori-Label as having aged this, I am deeply moved by the mellowness that emerges from this point.
