I had an image that Niigata sake is light and dry, so I didn't buy it.
But I bought it because the owner recommended it for its fruity, full-bodied, umami, and refined sweetness at a reasonable price.
When I read the comments of the subsequent purchasers after I bought it, the comments were dry.
Sake Masashi: 3,465 yen
5th cup
Gohyakumangoku 50% polished, 17% alcohol by volume
I think I'm going to change gear to high alcohol around here.
Moderately fruity with a freshness.
I think it was easy to drink even with high alcohol content.
(My memory of the taste is getting fuzzy from this area 😅)
Sake named after "Uesugi Kenshin," a feudal lord in his hometown of Niigata.
Melon-like aroma 🍈.
Soft and refreshing on the palate😌😌.
A delicious aftertaste ✨✨.
Unlike the image? A gentle sake 🍶🍶🍶.
The last one I ordered at Hikaru's was Kenshin from Niigata
50% polished rice
17% alcohol by volume
Fresh with a good body.
It is a good sake with a strong rice flavor.
Enjoying time with the regular customers at the counter.
The sad part is that I don't remember what we talked about.
Let's come back again.

Dry, which is rare in this restaurant? It is a rare dry sake at this restaurant. It is different from the "clear and light" style, but it is good that the umami spreads well.
I think this kind of sake is more drinkable than "sweet and delicious" or "sweet and acidic" sake. Delicious.
