Sake in Review: 久保田-碧寿 Kubota Hekijyu

August 17th, 2010

Kubota Hekijyu is a Yamahai Junmai Daiginjyo from Niigata Prefecture, Japan.   This sake has a very slight nut smell.  First sip reveals a  smooth and dry entry with a very clean taste.   Slightly acidic to spark the taste buds had hints of fruit flavor without being fruity.   Had a minor tail on first sip, in later sips the tail completely disappears.   Goes well with light seafood and white fish sashimi.
