うぴょん(豊盃こそ至高)
Alcoholic Beverage 15%.
Niigata is the kingdom of light, dry sake, and in recent years, many of the modern styles have been light. In such a place, there is a fantastic sake with a sweetness like Wasanbon (a type of rice cake). When I went to a store I visited once in a while, I found a bottle, so I had to try it and bought it. So, here we go!
The aroma is not too strong, but it has a concentrated sweet aroma. It is not too fruity. The slightly viscous brewing water, which goes in easily, has a strong sugary sweetness that could be mistaken for kijo sake. However, it has a moderate umami flavor and is easy to drink. The grapefruit-like acidity and bitterness gradually kick in, making it easy to drink without a sticky taste. There are many sake that also have sweetness, but I don't think there are many that have such a unique flavor. Next time, I would like to prepare Japanese sweets with anko (red bean paste). Thank you again for your hospitality this evening!
