ひえだの
I bought it first thing in the morning at a famous liquor store.
I bought a bottle for the first time.
There were almost 30 people in line, though I guess they were all looking for this. It feels good to be the first in line.
Yamaenishiki is a relatively new type of sake rice from Nagano. Many people said that this Shinshu Kameari was the best, so I was curious about it.
I took it out of the refrigerator and let it sit for a while before opening the package.
The color of the water is a little yellow.
The initial aroma was of melon and berries.
When I put it in my mouth, I felt a crackle of fresh gas.
Just as I thought my mouth was filled with the rich flavor of rice, a melon-like sweet and sour bomb exploded!
As you swallow, the sweetness, umami, and acidity come out in perfect unity, and the juicy melon and strawberry sensation occupies your mouth.
And after finishing, a slight alcohol-derived astringency lingers on the tongue, making it astringent and refreshing. The sweetness remains, though.
What the heck, this is really good....
It's sweet and juicy (I don't actually like that expression), but it's also very crisp...
It was hard for me to buy a bottle, but many people said that they drank the whole bottle in an instant, so it was a good decision to choose a bottle. This is a great sake to have on hand.
I would like to enjoy it on the second day and beyond, as well as how it changes with temperature.
