No taste contrary to the faint fruity aroma.
The soft mouthfeel gradually becomes numbing.
The aftertaste is refreshing. It is arabashiri, as it should be.
It tastes great when heated. It is just like cooked rice. The softness is emphasized and the stickiness is gone, just like white rice.
Obtained through crowdfunding. Premium Nama Sake and Extra White set. The price on the site was 3,800 yen (16% off), but that's almost the regular price.
The claim is that it is a nouveau (new sake) made from rice (Setsuwakamaru) harvested in a chateau called Shonai Hirano.
Indeed.
