It is one of the limited small shipment. It was given to me through a friend.
From the moment you open it up, you can smell a rather peculiar fermentation smell, like pickles or soy sauce (my friend said it smelled like a freshly opened plastic sheet or poison ivy).
When I put it in my mouth, the sour taste that I have never experienced before stimulates my tongue. It stimulates the tongue. The similar stimuli are heshiko and iburi-gakko.
I thought the -77 sake level was a joke, but it seems to be true. I've never seen a sake meter before, so I don't know, but is it really that long? LOL!
It's a very distinctive bottle, and I don't think it will be popular with the cognoscenti. I love the original Akishika, but even if you've had that one before, it's best to keep in mind that it's a completely different brew. Anyway, it was a very special sake and a very good experience.
