かいこま
In the past, I drank "Akanesasu" from the same brewery and thought it was delicious, but "Kame no Kai" was not well known and was a no-marker.
Last fall, I was impressed when I drank Kame no Kai "hiyaoroshi" at a soba noodle restaurant in front of Matsumoto Station. Since then, it has become a brand that I personally pay attention to.
The initial aroma is of elegant rice powder. In the mouth, it has a fruity sweetness like apples, followed by sharp acidity and mild bitterness typical of Miyamanishiki, with a nice sharpness.
Immediately after sealing, it was fresh and gorgeous with a slight gassy feeling, but tonight, after two days, it has calmed down and the bitterness can be felt, making it easy to match with meals.
As there have been many sweet sake recently, I measured the sugar content of this sake with a sugar meter (Brix meter) for reference, and it was 12 degrees. The sugar content seems to be on par with that of tangerines and watermelons.
