Ugonotsuki純米大吟醸 白鶴錦
Kab
This is a sake from a brewery whose zodiac sign has turned around with consecutive gold medals in the National New Sake Competition, the results of which were announced yesterday.
This is a coincidence regardless of the time of the announcement.
The aroma is apple and pineapple-like, but not that strong.
When you put it in your mouth, the umami flavor is unexpectedly ahead of the others. This also swells with a strong bitterness.
It is not sweet, and the bitterness turns to pungency as it finishes.
Although it is pure Dai, it is not strongly fruity, not too sweet, and has umami.
The bitterness becomes less noticeable during the meal, so it is considered to be for eating.
