Last night, after 6 consecutive working days, I had the last of this season's Shiboritate series! I bought this last year at Kinugawa Onsen (hot spring) and this is the last of the new sake series👍. When I opened the bottle, the aroma was of chestnuts, tropical fruits, and nuts (it had an impact similar to that of the Noriguchi-san series we drank on our recent trip to Hokuriku). The mouthfeel is round, viscous and smooth. It is rich yet bright and clear. Sweet, full-bodied rice flavor. After the caramel-like sweet astringency and moderate acidity, it quickly disappears with a lingering astringency, so even at 19%, I was able to keep going! It has a well-balanced taste with umami, sharpness, and aroma similar to Hokuriku mellow sake styles. I think this may be my favorite "Toryokushi" I've ever had.
