Lunchtime Sake Comparison Running, Part 2. Nirvana Turtle.
I asked the owner if it was a coincidence that the menu was in a state of Shinsei festival ⁉️. He told me that the manager doesn't drink alcohol but he has a connection with alcohol 😅 and he sometimes comes with more Shinsei than he can serve! (◎_◎;)
Nirvana Kame is a 90% low-pasteurized sake, and after he gave a grand presentation saying "Look how dark it is, it has a unique flavor! I thought ⁉️, but the waiter said "I've never had it because I don't have any money". Too funny 🤣.
Let's talk about the quiet taste. First, bitterness, sourness, and astringency come with a gusto, but they disappear as quickly as water. A little spicy, I guess. The sweetness is just a little at the end. According to my husband, who is not a drinker, it is the opposite of Hato Masamune.
It is a kind of sake that gives me a feeling of "Zen" purity.
I've only ever done zazen 🤣.
