My favorite of Akabu's sake rice series.
(I heard it's properly called the elegance series 😅)
I've been waiting for it for so long that I was wondering if it would be released this year...
I got so tired of waiting for it, but
I got the information that it is finally in stock.
I bought a bottle of Akabu's Sake Mirai.
But when I looked at last year's record, I found that we drank it on almost the same day 🤣.
Well, I'll get back on track.
Sake future 50% polished, 15% alcohol
When the plastic cover is removed and the crown is opened
The sound of the bottle opening is a long tone of "f" ♫
Good aroma from the mouth of the bottle as soon as it is opened ♫ ☺️
The top aroma is of gorgeous honey apple and melon.
Slightly malted rice flavor.
The moment you take a sip
As soon as you take a sip, the rich sweetness of Jyushiyo swells up.
The acidity, which is typical of nama-zake, tightens it up.
The last thing that remains is a slight bitterness.
This year's version is also very tasty and brings tears to my eyes 😍✨.
I've been drinking Akabu mainly as a light seasonal sake (Limited series to be exact), but compared to that, this one is a darker style with a distinct sweetness.
It's quite a different line and impressively close to Shinshu Kamerei.
I guess that's what the future of sake is all about 🤔.
I'm glad I could drink it again this year: ‼️
