Tasting Notes and Technical Description:

Visual Appearance:
In the glass, Murai Family Daiginjo Sake appears brilliantly clear, akin to liquid crystal. Its translucence is a testament to its meticulous filtration process, underscoring its Daiginjo classification.

Nose (Aroma):
The aromatic profile of this sake is a finely tuned symphony of scents. There's a harmonious blend of subtle fruit notes — think pear and lychee — interwoven with the elusive aroma of cherry blossoms and a slight undertone of anise. There’s also a whisper of rice-driven sweetness, a gentle nod to its primary ingredient.

Palate (Taste):
Upon tasting, the Murai Family Daiginjo Sake unfolds in complex layers. Initially, you are met with delicate fruit flavors that are neither cloyingly sweet nor overbearing. As the sip progresses, an undertone of umami begins to reveal itself, adding depth and complexity. A faint echo of mineral elements, likely from the pristine waters of Niigata Prefecture, round out the experience.

Finish:
The finish is long, smooth, and somewhat ethereal. It leaves a clean yet flavorful resonance on the palate, devoid of any harshness. This is a sake that invites contemplation, each sip offering a chance to discern another subtlety or nuance.

Mouthfeel:
With a medium body and velvety texture, this Daiginjo sake glides effortlessly across the palate. Its moderate alcohol content allows the intricate flavors to shine without being overshadowed by heat.
