Hououmida after a long time
Junmai Daiginjo-Unfiltered Unrefined Nama-shu made from 100% Aizan. Packaged in a magnum champagne bottle, it has an appearance not unlike a Japanese sake 😁.
Immediately after opening the bottle, it has a rich aroma, a thick sweet-tart bitterness with no acidity, and a long aftertaste. As the temperature rises, it gradually becomes more pineapple-like.
After a couple of days, a slight sourness is added and the balance of sweetness, umami, sourness and bitterness improves, and the curd is removed, making it even softer and smoother.
It was a freshly squeezed, yet rich and umakuchi (delicious) sake.
