Gold Winner at IWC 2023 Toyoake
I've had one with the same label before, but it was a draft sake and this one is bottle-fired.
The aroma is gorgeous, with a sweet and sour grape-like flavor.
Perhaps because it is fire-aged, the juiciness is reduced and the aroma is relatively mild, but it has a deep aroma that reminds me of sweetness and umami, which is more like sake than fruit juice.
The taste is mellow, but with a full-bodied sweetness and umami.
It has a very rich flavor with a slightly matured, honey-like taste.
Delicious beyond expectations!
Not much acidity, but clear and sharp, making it easy to drink.
This is an award-winning saké with a taste that will appeal to your tastes, and I personally highly recommend this bottle!
