A rare sake made with olive yeast. The aroma is rich, the taste is crisp and dry, and I'd like to think that the faint greenish smell is not a preconceived notion of olive yeast!
It is a very easy to drink sake with a clean, dry taste and moderate acidity. It seems that the brewing alcohol is also made from the company's own sake lees, which makes me think that it is actually pure rice wine. I think so. It's a sake you can enjoy with that kind of attention to detail!
I have the impression that most nigori are sweet, but this one is spicy, with a pleasant bitter aftertaste. It has a pleasant bitter aftertaste that goes well with a variety of dishes!
I drank it warmed up, and indeed it has won awards for heating up, and the balance of spiciness and softness on the palate is so good that I drank too much.
Postscript. When I drank it cold, it tasted like a model of clean dryness! Delicious!
I drank it cold and warmed, but I thought it tasted even better cold. It was soft on the palate and had a pronounced sweetness that I can honestly say was delicious.
It has a mellow aroma and a sweet taste with a slight sharpness that is pleasant! When it comes to Shimane, Juju-Asahi is the sake that I remember, but I am also deeply moved by the similarity of the rice, Gohyakumangoku.
It has a very sharp taste, which may be the most surprising thing since I drank Drunken Whale. If you find it too spicy, heating it up might be just right!
The name is intriguing. After the mild and mellow flavor in the mouth, the aftertaste and the feeling of a kick in the throat are just bursting with dryness. Truly delicious!
