もよもよ
I personally think that Tobiran is a rising star in the sake world. We were given a limited edition sake shop version of it. The rice used was Nikomaru, a local food rice, and the brewery aims to create a one-of-a-kind sake that can only be enjoyed at this brewery. All of the sake we have had so far have been delicious, so we had high expectations for this one as well.
It tasted like a refreshing melon, with not so much acidity. However, there is also a gentle lactic acidity, and it tastes a bit like a loquat. It was not too sweet, but not too sweet for a meal. In any case, it is not too sweet, and I think it is a modern bottle that goes well with meals.
It was enough to make me look forward to the future of the sake from Hiran. I am looking forward to more!
