I received a nice sake from a friend in Akita. It seems that a friend of mine who is a wine specialist collaborated with A-Sakura to produce this sake.
Refreshing fruitiness with a hint of kabosu and sudachi.
Syrupy sweetness and gorgeousness.
However, the floral taste is too persistent and bothers me. It bothers me even if I drink it on a different day. The sake is slightly dry with a sake strength of +2, but the sweetness is strongly picked up due to the florality, perhaps due to the AKITA snow country yeast UT-01. It may be that many people like it because of the recent trend of floral flavors.
Thanks to the brewer who sent us a limited edition of 600 bottles of this precious sake.
