Sake in Review : 初孫 Hatsumago

June 22nd, 2010

Hatsumago, “The First Grandchild” is Junmai Kimoto by Yamagata Prefecture’s Tohoku Meijo. The first smell is slightly floral and pleasant. This is followed by a taste that is smooth, slightly dry, sweet and fruity without being over powering. However, the smoothness is mask by a slight tail on the back end. This is a sake should be served chilled and can be serve with most food.
