Tacky
This is the first sake (Junmai Daiginjo) made after moving from Gifu Prefecture to Higashikawa Town in Hokkaido. Comet is used as the sake rice. In the mouth, sweetness, bitterness, and umami spread, and the bitterness remains as an aftertaste and gives the sake depth. This bitterness is a taste that breweries in Hokkaido could not produce until now. I think it's wonderful that the brewery has brought out the charm of Comet, which used to have a plain taste.
However, as this is the first sake brewed after the relocation, the bitter aftertaste is rough. I have high expectations for the future.
