Flavor

Appearance: This sake is transparent with a slight straw color and beautiful tears.

Nose: The first nose is very iodized with kelp, squid ink, and sea salt. The second nose confirms the trend with a little more grassy and fruity aromas: angelica, fennel, melon, and green fig. It is a complex nose: several aromatic families blend together. We also smell a touch of camphor, honey, and earth. It is atypical.

Palate: The palate is sweet: the texture is a bit reminiscent of honey. It's dense. There are still notes of iodine, sea salt with umami. There is a nice freshness that softens the powerful body of this sake with a -15 nihonshudo.

Finish: The finish is more on roots and cooked rice. It is long.
