It's beautiful, with a bit of earthiness for a Saku flower, combined with a good sense of astringency and an acidity that makes the tongue just a bit tangy.
It has a delicious taste with the taste of sake without excess or deficiency. It is easy to drink, but the line is not thin. It really has no peculiarities in a sense.
First, I felt the sourness, and then the astringency, but it was a delicious sake that I could drink easily. Chouchin is not my favorite type of sake because of its thickness, but the owner of the sake shop I've been working with recently recommended that this was a beautiful sake to drink, and he was right.
If the previous one, Asahi Koh, had a calculated balance, this one is thick and delicate.
This is delicious. I felt it was a step above the rest. It's like Ishidaya has been given a sake character.
It's fruity and doesn't linger on the tongue, yet it's firm and round!
It is a standard (I think because it is not a ginjo type) sake that is very unctuous and does not give the impression of being fruity or thick. It is easy to drink.
Of course, I have a preconceived notion, but I can really smell the apples. Not only in the taste but also before drinking. It's good enough to be a sake, but a little sweet for normal drinking (it's a matter of taste).
It's firm but not too thick, and the aftertaste is clean and delicious with a nice lingering aftertaste. It gets one star especially when it's in the middle of a meal.
It's a bit astringent when it's first opened (relatively speaking, since I probably prefer sour flavors), but it has a pearly softness that I like after a few days. The aftertaste is also clean and well balanced.
You can feel the mellow acidity very much. After the sourness comes the sweetness, which is refined by the ginjo aroma, but it is a full-bodied sake that cannot be categorized as a neat sake because of the origarari.
It is very sweet, but it does not leave any aftertaste.
It has a wine-like taste and goes well with meat such as pate de campagne. This product was sold at a department store.
When you put it in your mouth, you get a very sweet feeling on the bottom, but when you drink it up, the sweetness doesn't stay. Very delicious.
I guess you could say it has a wine-like texture. There is a lot of alcohol.
First of all, when I drank it on an empty stomach, I got the impression that it tasted sweet or sideways and sticky (more of a negative).
On the other hand, if you eat it with a meal, the taste of the sake is not bad, and it is not astringent. It's just a matter of taste.
