This is the first alphabetical takaichiyo I've seen since the Bear in the Woods.
I had always been curious about a sake rice called Aizan, so I was looking for this Goktaka, but could not find it.
Around April, when I went to Yoshikawa Sake Shop to buy a thunderbolt, they happened to have it and I was able to get it in time.
The body of the poured bottle was slightly effervescent.
The aroma is sweet like strawberries.
In the mouth, the strawberry flavor is more obvious than the aroma.
Then, there was a subtle flavor of rice and a slight bitterness. Combined with the slight bubbles, the taste is clean and crisp.
From the color of the label and the vague image of Aizan, I thought it would be cute and strawberry-like, but the flavor was just as I imagined.
Akita Sake Komachi is in a similar vein, but I think Akita Sake Komachi has the edge in terms of cuteness.
The flavors are similar, but the sweetness and acidity are what separates the two.
Alphabetakachiyo is very good in that it is made to be light and refreshing while showing off the characteristics of the sake rice, which seems to bring out the individuality of the sake rice even more.
