Nori
The color is naturally cloudy. It smells like a sake with a strong sourness.
The sake has a fruity taste and smell like a melon. There is a strong smell of alcohol because the alcohol content is strong. The bitterness and the alcohol feeling are strong. It's a nigori sake, so it's natural that it doesn't break easily, but it stays on the tongue. I like sake with a melon taste, so I personally like it a lot. It would be perfect if it were more refreshing, but since it is nigorizake, it would be strange to ask for that🤔.
In Ishikawa Prefecture, the whole prefecture releases nigorizake at the same time during this season, but either by chance or at the liquor store I visited, Takeha was the best seller (there were only a few bottles).
I'm starting to like Takeha these days too😊.
