ariccySake made with a yeast isolated in Germany in 1909, using naturally grown iserikari.
The aroma is relatively complex, with appleiness, malic and lactic acids, and a hint of honey.
The taste is rich and slightly sweet, with a grain-like flavor and a honey-like sweetness.
I'm not a fan of this type of wine unless it's sweet, so thank goodness for that.
The strong acidity comes out at the end and tightens it up, so it is not too sweet, but it is not clingy.
This sake is a good example of classic sweet sake.
