A sake with an elegant nose, little marked, and especially very fresh. The palate is remarkably structured, deep and complex, with good acidity. We return on a lot of freshness and precision in the final. A Daïginjo sweetness little present and therefore enjoyable.
The high-end sake of the Hyakujuro series. To be enjoyed throughout the meal !
百十郎黒面 純米大吟醸 林本店(岐阜県)
72cl. - Alc. 15%
About the brewery : Hayashi Honten is located on the southern border of the Gifu region, almost perfectly in the middle of Japan. This brewery is the property of a woman, who is the 5th generation owner of this typical family brewery. Hayashi Honten is very interesting because of the variety of the techniques they master for the production process; from ancient techniques to make Yamahaï, to the most modern one giving the purest Daïginjo, without forgetting the capacity to age sake and produce a very nice Koshu.
Detailed tasting notes : Hyakujuro Junmai Daiginjo's delicate bouquet expresses itself subtly, unfolding a refined aroma that diffuses gently. The delicate balance is shaped by refreshing acidity and slight sweetness. On the palate, the lingering sweetness and umami of the rice create a harmonious taste experience.
Serving suggestions : It goes perfectly with a Caprese Salad, highlighting its freshness, and a Mackerel Escabeche, harmoniously complementing the flavors of the marinated fish.
