🔰肴はあぶったイカでいい
The aroma is mild & mildly fruity. It is a little bit ladylike, but...
The taste is rich and sweet with the umami of rice! However, the tangy acidity of the sake makes it not too dull.
The aftertaste disappears quickly and is very crisp. It is like a storm of deliciousness passing by.
It's so good!
I was impressed by the fact that the rice is low-polished, yet there is no harsh taste, and only the deliciousness of the rice can be extracted.
Thank you again.
Here are some extras.
It is interesting to note that many of Shichida's labels match the color of the label with the taste and aroma impression.
According to the official label, the purple label this time "smells like ripe grapes. The green Junmai Oorigarami "smells like green apples," and the scarlet-toned 70% polished Shunyo "has an aroma reminiscent of lychee and grapefruit.
I have a very strong assumption that the aroma is like that! I drink sake thinking that it smells like lychee or grapefruit. So I envy sommeliers who can sense the true flavor of sake...
