Doukan Unfiltered Special Junmai Nama-shu
17% 60% Ginbuki 720ml 1650yen
The boss of Kinsho-kai bought a rare bottle of Doukan, so I asked him to share it with me.
The first sip.
Oh, is it a little heavy and fruity? Yes, the Doukan was quite heavy in quality.
The sweetness was chocolatey and brandy-like. The fruitiness is apple-like. I honestly thought that the fruitiness of the sake made it difficult to drink. I thought it was difficult to drink.
I tried drinking it again on three separate days.
Surprisingly, the fruitiness was okay. The lingering bitterness in the aftertaste is like cocoa. I think I can also pick up an astringent taste like black tea.
While looking it up on the Internet, I learned that the Ota Sake Brewery also makes wine and brandy. I wondered if the brandy technique is also used in sake.
I got the impression that it is a very drinkable and robust sake. I would like to visit the brewery.
