Konnayoruni…鹿 特別純米 中取り火入れ 2021BY
Kab
First day at room temperature. Almost no aroma, but just a hint of apple.
When you drink it, the thickening of the wine clings to your tongue, followed by a sourness mixed with fruity sweetness and umami like apple cider vinegar, and then the spiciness comes in quite rapidly and finishes.
On the second day, it is heated, both at 40°C and 45°C. After the thickening, the umami expands slightly and the spiciness comes and goes. The fruitiness is almost gone. Personally, I prefer it at room temperature.
Everything is moderate, or rather, it does not have an impact, but it is an aged sake with an assertiveness that is unmistakably Nagano. It is an excellent sake that goes well with all kinds of dishes, from rich to light.
