Rating 4.4
Alcohol percentage: 14%, Rice: Tamanaoe, Rice polishing ratio: 60
A summer-only sake with a pleasantly gorgeous aroma (light melon aroma) brewed with a combination of Tamanaoe, a rice suitable for sake brewing developed in Yamagata Prefecture, and Association 1801 yeast. A process was introduced to prevent oxidation, resulting in a fresher taste. It has an exquisite balance of floral and light flavors.
Shindo Sake Brewery is a sake brewery in Yonezawa, Yamagata. Gazanryu, a brand started under the current head of the brewery, is doing well.
Since I was on another business trip to Tohoku, I tried a local product at "Oshoshina" in front of Yamagata Station. The name of the sake sounds like a special move from a comic book, but it was a refreshing drink, sweet but not too sweet.
*The third one is Yamagata's specialty, cold ramen.

This sake stands at the pinnacle of today's drinking comparison. It's like being caught up in the magic of alcohol. It is very well balanced. It is worth drinking when you see it.
