bouken
Purchased at Miki Sake Shop along with Hakuro Taruzu and Takizawa
I bought a bottle of Nama nigori because I had a good impression of fire-aged sake.
It has a strong gaseous taste. It is fruity, but the sake is -7 on the sake meter, but it is still active nigori, so it tastes bitter and not as sweet as it is supposed to be. The second half of the bottle is a bit alcoholic.
As the temperature rises, the koji-like and rice-like flavors become stronger, but the bitterness is lessened and the sweetness can be felt.
There was also a regular unpasteurized sake that was not nigori, so I might have preferred that one 🤔.
