This is one of the "Choice of Three Types of Sake" that we were served at Sake Ikijo Straightforward. It was my favorite of the six kinds we had that day. I decided to finish off with this one.
The expression has changed a little since the last time I had it freshly opened, but it is still delicious.
I think it is better to match with food now that it has a more relaxed taste.
The third drink was a bakuren.
As the name suggests, it is super dry and sharp 😳.
I've never had a drink this sharp 🤣.
Well, I guess people who like it like it lol
