Purchased at a store next to a brewery a while ago and drank at home.
It is light and easy to drink. It is orthodox and has few peculiarities. Good with food.
You can compare different kinds of sake at the store, and it is a fun place to stop by when you are in Katsuragi City, Nara Prefecture.
The other is Umenoyado.
When the bottle is opened, it has a gentle, soft, sweet aroma like anko or Japanese sweets.
The mouthfeel is also soft and pleasant. The sweetness, spiciness, acidity, and astringency in the flavor are not all prominent, and the mild sake quality is also reminiscent of Fushimi sake, with its delicious and refined taste!
It has a light rice flavor reminiscent of Miyamanishiki, and is a delicious sake that can be served on its own or with food ✨.
It's raining unfortunately, but I'm off to explore Nara in the morning for the first time in about 10 years 🦌.
I'll have some Ume no Yado, which I've been meaning to buy but haven't gotten around to it yet.
It is a fruity, fresh and crisp sake. It has a solid core, but is very easy to drink, with a Yadama-esque honesty, elegance, and clean crispness.
Best served cold?
The third one is from UTAGE. We also had a good amount of shochu 😋.
