Both fruity and lactic, with a powerful palette to boot. The Masumi Aka is a sake that will grab your attention immediately.
With a polishing rate of 55%, it's natural to expect fruity flavors in this sake. But it also was brewed using the Yamahai method, know for adding complexity and flavor. You will immediately notice the color of this sake, a sign that this could be a Yamahai sake. Powerful in both nose and taste, the flavors of Apple, Pear, Grape, Melon but also Milk and Yoghurt. Being very acidic as well, the flavors of this sake linger for a long time in your mouth.
A sake that might not be for everybody, but I must say, this one packs a lot of flavors into a glass. If you are feeling bold, give it a try!
