Tonight, a bottle brewed with my favorite rice. When the bottle is opened, it has a gorgeous, light ginjo aroma. What a wonderful aroma! In the mouth, it is a jewel box of sweetness and rice flavor. No, it is not a cheap taste, but a noble and gorgeous one. The bitterness in the throat cancels out the sweetness, so the balance is perfect! When I eat the raw fish with salt, the aroma and sweetness of the sake is enhanced and delicious! The sea bream and soy sauce also complement the sake! Delicious! The sweet seasoned bulgogi beef turns into a refreshingly dry sake, which is also irresistible! Finishing off the meal is Uwajima tai meshi (sea bream & medjina w/ sweet & spicy sauce). The sweet and spicy sauce, the sashimi and the rice were all stirred in, but the sake was still wonderful. I like this brewery from the start, but the snow goddess made it even more delicious. It was a satisfying evening!
