Sweet and fruity.
And it's thick..!
It's firm and yet crisp.
The flavor is softly spreading with a clean aftertaste.

Not bad but definitely sharp with some alcohol bite. Mild sweetness. Not creamy.

Had at Ron of Japan at Alex’s and my 10th wedding anniversary dinner. It was easy to drink, smooth, and had that classic Niigata dryness. Yum!

It has a strong taste, a unique peculiar taste, and a sense of alcohol. It seems to be a food wine.

Tomorrow we will begin our expedition to the Kansai region 🚄.
I'll be drinking a lot again, so while I'm at it, I'll organize my past alcoholic beverages.
I finally got this one that I couldn't find in my neighborhood.
Kikusui Nama Sake
Fresh, but with a strong Kikusui-like flavor 🥰.
This is delicious👍
I want to stock up on a few bottles 😁.

禊萩（自生）
Purchased at Ponshukan in Nagaoka Station.
The aroma is pineapple-like sourness.
Yet the mouthfeel is not sour, but sweet with a hint of astringency.
It is really easy to drink.
This is a nice cup sake.

I didn't drink it myself today, as it was my sobriety day.
Instead, I selected this bottle for my father-in-law.
Kikusui Dry (recommended by the brewer).
A crisp, light and dry sake from Niigata. It is crisp and clean at room temperature.
It is a classic type that is perfect for an evening drink at home. The specs are as follows.
👩🦰 My wife gave it a 9: "It's good."
👨🦳 Father-in-law gave it 8-9 points: "On a scale of good to excellent, it's excellent.
I see. ......
My father-in-law, who has been drinking sake for decades, and my wife, who has enjoyed it with him, prefer it.
It is different from the "gassy" and "umami" type sake that I have been drinking,
It was a bottle that made us realize once again that it is a royal road of "light and dry" + "aruzome" + "good taste at room temperature".

It's true! I can see why this one is more expensive!
Maybe it's dense! It has a slight sweetness to it, too!
Not as upper jaw as the fruity one!
It's slightly sweet and easy to drink! I can feel the spiciness on my upper jaw though!

Yellow.
I understand the description of this one as "fruity"!
It's a one-cup, so it has a refreshing taste, but the Ozeki one-cup I just had was much more refreshing and spicy!
I wonder if this one has a softness in the mouth and then spreads?
I can tell it's fruity even when I go back to it!

I get drunk after half a cup, so I have a little bit every day and am almost finished with it. It was delicious!
A friend recommended heating sake, so I think I'll try heating it up at the end.
The moment I put it in my mouth, there was a spiciness from the alcohol, and at first I didn't feel any sweetness, but after a little over a month, I started to feel the sweetness.
It's interesting how the same sake can be perceived differently depending on your physical condition and food.
