Impression: Sake like dessert wine
This is a kijoshu in which some of the brewing water is replaced with junmai sake. The taste is completely dessert wine standing and you will want to drink it last.
This one has a fresh aroma due to the fact that it is a draft sake, so it does not feel heavy. It also has a nutty flavor that goes well with pistachio gelato.
Pairing] Blue cheese, vanilla ice cream, fruit tart
Dessert wine-like position.
Repeat Score] 2.0
