The snow that piled up so much has melted, and the news of cherry blossoms will arrive next month in Morioka in the northern part of Japan.
AKABU's SAKURA arrived a step or two earlier than that!
Because it is a new product, there was a rush of inquiries even in my hometown, and at a liquor store near my office, one bottle was sold per person when it went on sale at 1:00 p.m. Before 1:00 p.m., there were several people waiting (including me). AKABU is to be feared.
I wanted to go home early and drink, but it was already 1:30 a.m. after working late. I opened the bottle without even eating dinner.
It is more powerful than SNOW. When you pour it, the light blue color of the bottle reflects and the sake looks like that color.
Perhaps it is because of the name "SAKURA" and the preconception of spring sake, but it smells like plums and cherries.
It starts with a slight gaseous feeling and gentle sourness, and then a faint sweetness spreads gently and fades away with the sourness.
I drank it while listening to various Sakura songs.
The image of the taste was "SAKURA" by Ikimono-gakari.
because of the time of the year and the PV of Morioka.
Before the cherry blossoms bloom" by Mushroom Empire
These two songs got me hooked.
