We received a bottle of Sentori Classic I. Classic is a bottle made with Kame-no-o and Yamada-nishiki sake rice, with no added yeast and made with Morohaku. It is one of SENKYO's classic brands along with Modern and Retro. I-shiki means fire-aged, and nama-shu is zero. I bought this classic because I heard the brewer of Senkyu talk about this sake. He said, "Oh, I wanted to make this kind of sake. When I drank this one, I thought, "I finally got there. I finally got there." He has made many delicious sakes. The brewer of SENKYO, who has made many delicious sakes, says that this sake is the one that he has reached. If you like SENKYO, you must not miss this sake. This statement is about SENKYO Classic I with the production date of 2025.1. When I bought this Sentori Classic I, I thought it was a clear sake, but in fact, it was a light nigori, which was a happy miscalculation. It was actually lightly carbonated when I poured it into the glass. At this point, it is my favorite type of sake. When I drank it, I found it to be light and clear despite being made using the traditional sake brewing method. It is fresh, sweet, and sour, with the complexity of a light nigori, yet clean and refined. It was one of the best tasting drinks among all alcoholic beverages.
