It's clear that umami is not a polish...! It tastes so good!
No sake smell and just the right amount of sweetness and aroma!
I received it as a tax payment from my hometown, but I would normally buy more!

Tour Rice Sake 🌾Take a trip to Sake Rice: ‼️
I'm starting to understand the difference between sake rice a bit more these days: ☺️
Kame-no-o has a strong umami flavor and just the right amount of acidity😋👍
Here's one from my senpai in Akita, who told me that MK-X is a yeast project. Hinomaru's original sake rice, Hinomaru, was also a first! The enlightenment was opened. And this year, yellow malted rice was used instead of the usual white malted rice. This is what rich acidity from rice sweetness means. As you can see, the senior sake drinkers made the right choice. I am amazed. This makes the cup go down a notch. It is delicious!
[Trick or treat!
The second half of October has arrived. Old men in costume parades peeked into taverns here and there with gulps of sake in their hands and said, "If you don't give me sake, I'll play a trick on you!
"Give me some sake or I'll do something naughty!
They are not so bad.
This time, I'd like to introduce you to a scene a bit similar to that of the "Nagu goiinega! This year again, we opened a bottle of sake from Akita Prefecture, which is well-known for its similarity to such a scene.
It has a fruity rice aroma with a moderate sweetness. It is rather bitter, but not unpleasant and does not linger. I had to put the bottle away immediately after pouring it into my glass, or I would have poured myself another glass.
But I don't know why, although it tastes good, I don't feel the urge to gulp it down. This shows that I have not yet gotten over the aftereffects of the Corona.
Purchased at usual liquor store.
Aroma is subdued, slightly fruity?
The taste is sweet with a hint of rice sweetness.
Maybe a slight bitterness in the aftertaste.
Rolling it under, I can feel a light sourness, not quite vinegar.
It is extremely tasty with inari!
It lives up to the description that it is recommended as a food wine.
Alcohol 16%.

Taste ★★★☆☆☆☆
Yes yes yes! Delicious!
The gusto of flavor? Aroma? What does "mellow" mean? ←I'm sure it's a drink where you can feel the power of the sake on the palate.
I can only feel it through my stupid nose, so please don't use it as a reference.
The entrée is a smoked shira (dolphinfish) that I got as a gift.
This one also has a strong taste and I think it will be a long drink tonight lol ← I know it's not good lol

Celebrating my parents' joyous life.
The first drink was this.
It is deliciously dry. It has a beautiful entrance and then the umami spreads. Very good.
The first sip was quite sour...? I thought it was quite acidic.
For a sake that claims to be a food sake, it seems to have a lot of acidity.
Well-balanced and refreshing, it's the kind of sake you'd want to drink on the first sip.
I would like to drink it as a first sip.
Friday's fun opening day 🍶 lol!
Tonight, we have a Toji's Choice Pink Label ✨ from Mansaku no Hana.
It's a food sake, so...my curiosity about ⁉️, which has something in common with Hakurakusei, won out and I bought it without hesitation 😆.
When I opened the bottle...?
It has a subtle ginjo aroma, which is gorgeous for a food sake 🤔.
Then I took a sip 😋.
The sweetness, umami, and sourness 🍋 can be felt at the moment of drinking, but it quickly disappears and the aftertaste is refreshing ✨.
This may be the type of food wine that you can choose what to pair it with... I don't think it can be paired with heavy fat 😅.
This is just my personal opinion, but for yakitori, I would definitely choose shio (salt): ❗️
I'm a little doubtful that tare can shed the taste of tare and reset it ❓....
On the contrary, the balance of sweetness, umami and bitterness, and sharpness... I think the balance is quite good even if it is a single item: 🙆♂️
If you drink it as a substitute for beer, it will make your cup go down a notch 😆.
However...it's still a hard hurdle to break the stronghold of Hakurakusei, which specializes in the ultimate food sake 💧.
On the first day, it was easy to drink and you could taste the rice flavor, but on the second day, I felt that the dry part became a little sweeter, and I felt it changed considerably as the days went by.
I am looking forward to the future.
My wife was attracted by the cute turtle label at the liquor store and bought a packet ❕🥰.
I can't wait to try Kame-no-o and Aizan sake ❕❕❕.
Let's start with the aroma.
It has a fresh sweet aroma like green apple and pear.
When you put it in your mouth, the fresh sweetness spreads all over your mouth just like the aroma.
There is also a slight sourness, and the sweetness doesn't linger, but it quickly evaporates 😀 😀.
When you put some fatty bonito tataki in your mouth and drink it with it, the sweetness fades away and it feels dry.
This is delicious ❕.

The mouthfeel is clean, umami, and fruity. The aftertaste is subtle umami and astringency. Overall, it is soft and clear.
