Sharaku初しぼり 純米酒
常に初陣
It's been a long time since I've seen 寫楽.
It is the first shibori, junmai sake.
The aroma is soft and green apple-like.
It has a mellow mouthfeel and a sweetness that spreads.
The taste is rounded rather than refreshing.
However, as is typical of junmai sake, it also has a pungent and bitter taste.
However, the taste is not unpleasant, but has a refined depth.
There are many different types of 寫楽, but this is the first time I've had junmai sake.
It might be good warmed up.
It went better with sweet and spicy snacks than with refreshing snacks.
Best match was avocado!
Pairing: Yakitori-style grilled chicken thigh with leeks, Furofuki daikon, sweet vinegared turnip, avocado nametake mushroom with nori, tomato with camembert cheese
