How long on earth will it last?
This is the 40th review from the past collection.
In 2023, I finally had a chance to drink Risshun Shibori, which I have been a Sentori fan for about 7 or 8 years already! This is the time of year when there is a rush for new sake, so the fridge is always empty...lol!
Sengoku is known for its acidity. I could feel the acidity from the aroma. While the impression is clean and refreshing, the acidity and umami are strong enough to be tasty on its own! Recently, SENKYO has only been served with a meal, but the raw sake has been tasty enough to be drunk by itself.
The people I was drinking it with did not usually drink sake, but they said this one was easy to drink, and they were getting drunk. Be careful not to drink too much!
My impression is that it is a sweet and sour light sake, but it has a strong umami (flavor) rather than sweetness. This is the reason why it is a typical SENKYO sake.
It was so easy to drink that I ran out within 3 days.
