Another Chinese
rice wine, marketed at a variety of ages.
Soy
coloured, a little lighter than some of the examples we have seen. When we
approach it (hot), it has the fruit character of a ruby port (which somehow
seems wrong when we look at the colour); as it cools, it acquires a quite
distinct cashew nut character. Not as complex as some of the rice wines we’ve
tried, but very attractive.
The label
lists the alcohol content as 15% +/-1% - if only Western wine labelling was so
touchingly honest.
