This time I keenly felt the difference between sake that is good with food and sake that is good on its own.
For me, Drunken Whale is in the category of food sake.
I thought it would be a good substitute for rice, partly because it's junmai (pure rice).
My impression of this sake has changed a lot since the last time I drank it.
The fruity flavor that combines acidity and sweetness at the same time is impressive, but it also leaves an astringent aftertaste.
This sake reminded me of how sake is made nowadays.
At this stage, I felt more impressive fruitiness than Kaze no Mori.
No photo because I received one cup of sake to share with others.
The aroma is unlike any sake I've ever had!
Smoothness and sweetness are amazing!
Thank you for this very rare sake!
