It was one of my favorite muddy sake that I drank last year. How is it this year?
Smooth on the palate. When I think of Sentori's muddy sake, I imagine Yukidaruma, but it has a completely different flavor, with little sweetness. However, immediately after drinking it, there is a bit of sweetness along with bubbles and acidity, like a stylish fruity sour.
The sweetness is then replaced by the umami of the rice, and it stays there until the end, along with the bitterness that appears in the middle.
Today I drank it with kimchi nabe. You sometimes add rice to the end of a nabe and make zosui (rice porridge), don't you? It is the same feeling. As was the case with Hanaboe, I reconfirmed that kimchi nabe and nigorizake go well together. There is no reason why rice and kimchi can't go well together!
When served cold, the sake is refreshing, and when the temperature rises, you can taste the richness.
It is a low-alcohol sake, but it is still drinkable and dry, which is probably due to the strong flavor of rice. I think this is a gem that should be made a regular product!
