The aroma is fresh and refined, offering delicate notes of green apple and white grape, intertwined with natural lactic nuances and a gentle cedar-like character imparted by wooden vessel brewing. On the palate, the texture is exceptionally smooth and velvety, with crystalline acidity and soft sweetness achieving an elegant balance as layers of rice-derived umami gradually unfold. The traditional Kimoto method contributes depth and tension, while the wooden vessels add subtle astringency and a refreshing sense of coolness, giving the sake greater dimension and complexity. The finish is clean and lingering, accented by elegant woody nuances and a crisp, refreshing conclusion. It is a highly accomplished sake that beautifully combines transparency, finesse, and complexity.
Aramasa Colors Viridian Nakadori Taruzake Kimoto Kioke Jozo Junmai is a rare limited-edition release that seamlessly blends traditional brewing craftsmanship with Aramasa's modern aesthetic philosophy. Based on Viridian, one of the most highly regarded expressions in the Aramasa Colors series, it is brewed using the traditional Kimoto method in wooden vats. The brewery then carefully selects the "Nakadori" middle-run portion during pressing—the section prized for its exceptional balance, purity, and refinement—for bottling. The result is a pristine, elegant, and deeply expressive sake that showcases both the sophistication of Viridian and Aramasa's continued exploration of traditional brewing culture.
