The red yeast is supposed to give it this pink color. It's hard to tell because there's not much left. It tastes like sake, but it's a bit like a dessert. It's like a sake for finishing.
The portrait of the person who made it on the label is stylish. There is quite a bit of sparring sensation right after opening the bottle, and it is refreshing, just like the label.
I bought it on the recommendation of a liquor store in Nagasaki. I heard that Nagasaki originally has a lot of sweet sake, but recently there has been a lot of sake with a refreshing taste. This sake has a sweet taste, but it is also refreshing and easy to drink. The sake is made from local ingredients, and the stylish straw label is quite nice.
I drank it in comparison to a raw saké. It has less sweetness than the unpasteurized sake and has a peculiar taste like old sake. It tastes a little more like Japanese sake than Namazake.
It is a super sweet and rich sake with a high percentage of koji (39%). It doesn't have a strong flavour and has a fruity feel, so it can be enjoyed on the rocks or with soda.
This is the original label for a veterinary clinic called Pannonica Spay Clinic, which specializes in spaying and neutering cats, and it's made by Yamano Shuzo, who makes Katano Cherry Blossom in Katano City. It's completely different from Katano Zakura, with a sweet and fruity taste like wine, and you can drink it without any snacks. The illustration on the label is very cute.
