The umami of rice and melon-like sweetness can be felt in the beautiful mouthfeel, yet it has a refreshing sharpness. This is the kind of sake to pair with a meal.
First of all, I was surprised that there was no brand name. The aroma is subdued and the taste is like Shaoxing wine with a brown sugar-like sweetness that lingers on.
Beautiful sweet umami and maybe bitter grapes from the moment of drinking. It has a dry sharpness at the end with moderate acidity while slowly giving a sense of umami. Delicious.
