ジョナジョナ
It was too hot to drink anything but highballs, but I decided that this was not a good idea, so today I went with sake.
It is a junmai-daiginjo-namaishu made from Hidahomare, a brand of sake with a fruity taste.
It has a lingering lychee-like aroma (doubtful since I haven't had it for a while). A little later in the mouth, a light sweetness spreads, and a gentle acidity and umami create the aftertaste.
It has a refreshing taste, just right for summer.
It would be good to drink it in a wine glass, or pour it into a snake-eyed sake cup and serve it with grilled eggplant and vinegared cucumbers to feel the summer.
