酒記「しゅき」
I got it at a sushi restaurant.
It seems to be the second day after the mouth opening.
Beautiful acidity and beautiful sweetness. Gentle and round fruit aroma is wonderful.
Gentle, floral and elegant aroma like ripe banana and pineapple. Fluffy and acidic aroma.
The taste is fresh but nostalgic with gentle sweetness, enveloping acidity, and soft umami.
Perhaps it is because it is brewed in a wooden vat, but if I were to use an analogy, I would say it has the relaxing aroma and softness of taking a bath in a cypress tree.
I felt a hint of the juicy deliciousness of rice and perhaps only rice farmers can convey this, but I felt a hint of graininess when the rice hulling machine is being used. It is a different feeling from the sweetness of milled rice.
It was a sushi restaurant that uses red vinegar with a perfect balance of beautiful acidity and sweet umami, but it takes the acidity of the vinegared rice.
It is a wonderful sake that can fight on its own,
The sushi of the first bonito and the white fish were outstanding. Well, they were all very tasty.
It has a light mouthfeel and it is hard to feel the alcohol. It is clear but has depth.
I have had the 2023, but I prefer the 24 year old.
I wonder if it's the yanni from the wooden vats? I didn't feel any astringency and there was no spike of acidity.
