酒記「しゅき」
Usually fresh out of the refrigerator.
The aroma is subdued. It would be better to drink it in a wine glass.
Slight muscat aroma like young banana. Not very assertive, but refined.
It is very light and easy to drink, but you can taste the umami. The name "Mujin" suggests that it is an honest sake with no frills.
It is clear but has a refined sweetness with a core of rice.
The taste is light and refreshing? The taste is from light to robust umami and piquant acidity.
If I were to compare it to a woman, it would be like a young lady who takes classical piano and swimming lessons at a nice place in the countryside.
I think it is the best sake for a meal. The sake is not the star of the show, but a full complement to the meal.
The chili, juicy sweetness and lingering aroma at the end of the drink are irresistible.
I think it would be a mistake to pair it with any meal, but since I found the sake to be delicious at near room temperature, I think it would be perfect with warm food.
It would be great in a grated radish stew, buri daikon, steamed dishes, etc... It would also go well with Italian cuisine.
I recommend it to those who drink it long and in small sips, as the taste increases after opening the mouth.
I think it is rare to find a sake that is not so flat. Usually, it has a little bit of a bad side, but...
