りょうすけ
This is the first time I have heard of this sake rice. The aroma is quite grain-like, with even a hint of savory flavor. But there is also a lactic acidity like yogurt in the back, which is somewhat strange. The mouthfeel is super smooth. It has an acidity like that of Yamahai, and a sense of rich maturity. But the body itself is not that heavy, and it disappears with a strong bitterness and alcohol. Is this a characteristic of the rice? I was a bit puzzled by the taste, which was not what I expected from Ni-Rabbit. But it is certainly delicious. It would also look good at room temperature or warmed. Postscript I looked it up and found out that this sake rice is used only by Nitoshi! What a precious rice!
