This sake is brewed using a traditional method called "Hashira Shochu Brewing," in which shochu made from Abe Shuzo's own sake lees is added to the sake during fermentation. This adds the sharpness of shochu to the goodness of junmai-shu, giving it a new taste. The smell is quite shochu-like.
The smell is quite shochu-like? Sake lees? It is a little bit like a sake lees.
When you drink it, you can feel the richness of the rice.
The full-bodied rice flavor is followed by a little bit of sweetness, and then it disappears without a hitch.
It was a delicious sake, different from the image of Abe Shuzo's sake that I have received so far!
Thank you for the treat!
