This time I paired it with shabu-shabu.
The wine was delicious from the fruity and sweet mouthfeel to the finish, with a slight fizzy acidity that lingered on the palate.
Pair with sashimi.
The fruity and umami flavors of the mouth complement the sweetness of the fish, making it easy to drink as a mealtime sake.
It is best served at room temperature or lukewarm with a lingering sweetness and acidity.
I bought this sake at Sasaki Sake Shop in Ningyocho.
It is only super dry, with a spicy acidity and umami spreading from the mouth like a yamaboshi, leaving a lingering taste of umami and faint acidity.
It is slightly effervescent, with a rummy, fruity sweetness that spreads out, followed by a gradual acidity that leaves a spicy, umami aftertaste at the end.
I opened it after it had been laid down for several years.
It smells of melon fruit and has a beautiful clean dry acidity that breaks through and has a light lingering finish.
It is slightly effervescent and has a rummy mouthfeel, followed by a fruity sweetness, then a slow acidity, and finally a lingering spiciness and umami flavor.
I found the last bottle in Oyama and this year.
Steady and delicious, with pineapple fruitiness and a slightly effervescent mouthfeel that gives way to a clean, rummy acidity.
This is the second sake I bought when I visited Hokkaido.
The soft acidity gradually leaves the mouth with a subtle sweetness and umami flavor, and the balance is nice!
