Kagatoubi Cho-Karakuchi Yamahai Junmai

Kagatoubi Cho-Karakuchi Yamahai Junmai. Already a big fan of Kagatoubi, and all the Fukumitsuya products, but this is really something. You'd certainly not guess that this is yamahai. Yamada Nishiki and gohyakumangoku milled to 65%, SMV +12, acidity 1.8, 16% abv. Dry, yes, but really not an extreme sake, the acidity is not aggressive, and even though you might think it would amplify any yamahai funkiness, it just doesn't. Full-flavoured without being full-flavoured.Yum.
