50th Anniversary Sake, first drink. Smells like green tea ice cream. Lactic acidity as the temperature rises. It is smooth, with the sweetness of rice, spiciness, and a firm taste in the middle, and the strength and bitterness of the alcohol give it a sharp taste. It is delicious and appetizing. Try it on the rocks as recommended. The sweetness stands out, and the bitterness and lactic acidity give it a refreshing kick. There is a gentle flavor of rice in the middle.

Clear, refreshing, light and dry ✨. It tastes as good as the label says. Goes well with buri daikon for dinner. Excellent sharpness.

I had been looking forward to this since it was released in November, but it was not sold in Shizuoka anytime soon, so I bought it in Nara during the New Year holidays and got it. The freshness and sweetness are stronger than the regular version. Delicious, highly recommended.
