It's been a few years since I started following Senkou's seasonal sakes, and I've finally arrived at Snowball. I've had a few origari sakes before, but this was my first real nigori sake. The moment I uncorked the bottle, I was hit with a huge gasp. When I poured it into a sake cup, it was more smooth than I expected, and the gas was bubbling. At the first sip, it doesn't taste as sweet as I had expected, but it has an unexpectedly light taste with a gas-like sensation on the tongue. Huh! After letting it come back to room temperature for a bit, I took a second sip... Whoa, this is pear juice with a sour taste! The taste is quite delicate, so it's best to drink it by itself as an aperitif. <10 minutes later Lie, lie, I retract my previous statement. I thought it was a delicate taste, but the taste has changed dramatically. It has become thicker. The mouthfeel is chili-chili, then a thick middle note comes, and the last note is pear and a lactic acid aftertaste. It's such a change!
