Professional Review

"The aromas are sweet like beet sugar, washed cheese, animal fats and wild aromas respectively. It is both acidic and delicious like fresh cheese and has a complex taste like malt sugar and cereal rice. The aftertaste is long enough. Enjoy it cold, at room temperature or lukewarm."

Pairing Suggestion: Crab and prawn dishes and Japanese cuisine with sea urchins.

"It has a rich aroma of ripe yellow apples. The dominant scent comes from relatively matured characteristics, with hints of white spices, buttery biscuits, almond milk, and a touch of iodine. The taste is robust yet smooth, characterized by a powerful and mellow acidity. As a junmai ginjo, it boasts a rich and well-rounded balance, with a slightly pronounced bitterness reminiscent of citrus, adding depth to the flavor. It is recommended to serve this sake at a temperature between 5°C and 10°C in a small porcelain ochoko (sake cup)."

Pairing Suggestion: Miso-pickled cheese, Nanban-zuke (Southern-style marinated) smelt fish, Harusame (glass noodle) salad, Grilled marlin with tomato sauce
