This time we will compare the α and β versions, both of which were made by changing the timing of adding gin.
The α is made by adding YASO GIN at the last step of the brewing process, called tomeshi-brewing, in which koji mold, steamed rice, and water are added.
Last time it took a while to open the bottle, but this time it was opened immediately.
From the aroma, it is already exciting with various organic aromas that are not typical of sake.
The lemony acidity and grapefruit-like bitterness give it a thickness that does not end with freshness.
The spicy and herbal character of the gin adds to the botanical taste.
The citrus and herbaceous image is a combination of citrus and lemongrass.
The price is 2,750 yen, so it is not a drink for those who want to drink a lot, but I had the impression that it has a rich taste and performs well. Together with the beta mentioned below, it impressed me as a delicious and intellectually stimulating product!
