unpasteurized sake
This is a delicious sake. The rice-derived sweetness and amino acid flavor that is typical of unpasteurized sake comes with a bang. The aftertaste is spicy and refreshing. I also enjoyed the tingling carbonation right after opening the package. Personally, I would have preferred a ginjo aroma along with the umami. But the umami is very appealing.
My personal preference: 3.6/5.0
