Shimeharitsuru Tsuki Honjozo Asahi Shuzo and rarely do I smile

and rarely do I smile when writing a review

and all that you are brewing with is pure “purity

and other thicker desserts

A very drinkable dry sake that has an appealing dryness

fruit compote

Shimeharitsuru Tsuki Honjozo Asahi Shuzo and rarely do I smileThe nose on this extremely cool Niigata sake is a gentle collection of steamed rice, vanilla, mint, hay, toast, and nougat aromas. Stop the presses! This is one of those "Bucket List" brews that every sake drinker on their sake path should try that is void of the word fruit! There are no fruity aromas, and there are no fruity flavors. Huh? Doesn't that just mean dry ricey sake? Nope, it means clean, smooth, soft, creamy, silky, easy, and gentle sake
