Professional Review
"The nose is reminiscent of Rieussec, a Bordeaux noble rot wine. There is a good amount of alcohol, similar to Aquavit, and the well-concentrated fruit and instant line of the aroma is fully enjoyable. The palate is rich, walnut-like, with a nutty astringency and a delicious flavour. This is a unique characteristic. The aftertaste is modest, but this sake can accompany many different categories of food. Enjoy chilled."
Pairing Suggestion: Apricot-based pastries, whipped cream, mixed nuts, chocolate with high cocoa content."

"It exhibits a rich aroma of matured notes. The predominant scents include almond milk, cinnamon, and dark chocolate. There is a complex and profound complexity reminiscent of barrel aging, with nuances of brown sugar, hinoki cypress, oak, and cloves. These elements harmonize with the fragrances of shiitake mushroom broth, squid ink, smoked and pickled daikon, and earthy tones. The taste carries a luscious and velvety thickness derived from the aging process, yet it maintains a relatively light and elegant balance. The sake showcases remarkable maturity, and the finish is moderately long. It is recommended to serve this sake at a temperature range of 10°C to 20°C, using a Sherry glass for optimal enjoyment."
Pairing Suggestion: For desserts, chocolate-based confections would complement it well. For savory dishes, those prepared with Yachimiso, a type of miso paste, would create a harmonious combination.
Examples include Sachertorte (a classic Austrian chocolate cake) and simmered beef in a savory broth.
