natural apple Aroma reminiscent of apples and honey. The palate is clean and refreshing, with a mild and gentle sweetness. The apple-like aroma rises, and after a slight bitterness, it finishes with a lingering sweetness. This sake is brewed by Mr. Terui, a toji (master brewer) who was awarded the Contemporary Master Craftsman award. This sake has not only the sweetness of apples, but also the complexity and bitterness of nature. It was given to me as a celebration of my new job. ★★★★

fresh olive Aroma reminiscent of young grass and alcohol. The round mouthfeel is followed by a sharp acidity. The nose is then filled with hints of young muscatel and olives, and finally finishes with a lingering pungent aftertaste. Pair it with salted chocolate. The sweetness and saltiness compensate for the dryness of the sake, creating a good balance. ★★★★★

mild apple Slightly yellow. Aroma reminiscent of sour apple cider vinegar. The mild mouthfeel gives a sense of matured acidity. The aroma is like that of Shaoxing wine, and after the umami of rice gradually appears, it finishes with a mellow aftertaste. It has the mellowness and gravity of an aged sake. There are also nuances like Western-style sake. ★★★★★

From the strong carbonation attack, you can taste sweetness with lactic acidity. The end is a tangy, pungent, bitter taste that finishes off nicely.

Pursuit of acidity Floral, acidic aroma. The clean mouthfeel gives way to a refreshingly fresh sweetness. This is followed by a rounded acidity with a sense of transparency, and finishes with a slight bitterness. The transparency and the acidity that continues slowly are distinctive.
