The Long Island Wine & Spirit Merchant TeamTasting notes
Nose
Deep amber in the glass, the nose leads with toasted rice and dried shiitake, then a soft caramel note and a faint saline edge that keeps it savory.
Palate
Medium bodied and silky, with a gentle sweetness up front that gives way to umami-rich toasted grain and mushroom, lifted by a mild acidity and a warm nutty undertone.
Finish
Ends warm and gently nutty, with a lingering savory note and just enough acidity to keep you coming back.
How to serve and what to pour it with
Serve slightly warm, around 100 to 110 degrees, in a small wine glass or traditional cup. A splash of warm water can soften the alcohol and open the aromatics. Avoid ice, which mutes the umami. Use it as you would a dry sherry, and keep the bottle tightly capped once opened.
