<"Clean aging, mystery sake. This is a mysterious sake from the Higashiyama Sake Brewery in Fushimi, Kyoto. Even if you search for this, you won't find any information at all. It's rare to find nothing at all so far. It may not even be a regular limited edition, but a small amount of aged sake that happened to come out and they tried to sell it. The aroma is sweetness of honey, soft sourness, and caramel with a hint of aging. When you put it in your mouth, the aged sourness and sweetness go boom! The flavor is also there! There is a lot of flavor. But in the second half, the taste recedes quickly and is cut cleanly. It's delicious! If I were to compare it to Ghibli, I'd say it's like the old man Pom from "Laputa: Castle in the Sky". He is firm but has a gentle way of aging. This sake was aged for 5 years at 3 degrees Celsius, just as Grandpa Pom spent years in a mine without sunlight in search of flying stones. When Grandpa Pom was confronted with the crystal of the flying stone that he had sought for decades, he almost gave in to his desire for a moment. But he properly overcame it. This sake also has such a gentle strength. Satisfaction: ★★★★. I'll post the full version on the blog, complete with character images and such. If you'd like, you can search for "korune sake" or come from the link in the profile section.
