The nose of Emishiki's Blue Namazake reveals green apple notes intertwined with delicate floral elements. Upon sipping, you'll experience a rich and mellow flavour profile. The umami is pronounced, and the acidity harmoniously balances the overall taste. The sake is layered and well-rounded, offering a smooth finish. A juice-like flavour emerges as it warms toward room temperature, reminiscent of biting into ripe fruit. The blue label is the smoothest variety among Emishiki's "colour-labelled" namazake.
