I drank it on my birthday.
It is a rare product sold in limited quantities every year!
It is a lightly nigori (lightly cloudy) raw sake directly pumped from the vat. The nose has a soft apple aroma. In the mouth, the sake has a full, gentle sweetness brought about by the sake's -16 sake strength, and the slight carbonation characteristic of nama sake spreads softly in the mouth. The aftertaste is light and crisp.
Today is my wife's birthday and we had a birthday party at a bistro called Agoi in Taipei.
We both had our favorite ogara-mi from the separate menu 😊.
The ingredients from all over Taiwan, the sake from Aichi, and the refreshing sweet orikarami worked well together without spoiling the meal. ☺️

Thank you very much, we had a great time in Taiwan. We had a great time in Taiwan watching baseball ⚾️, sightseeing and drinking ☺️ and the food was delicious.
Good evening, ma-ki-.
Thank you very much. I really enjoyed my time with you. ‼️ It's hot in Taiwan, but it's also extremely hot in Japan in the second half of the Bon Festival. Let's drink in the heat😓☺️
Good morning, Ponchan! Sorry for the delay in replying🙇.
I am glad to see the spread of sake culture in Taiwan. ☺️
In Taiwan, a 2,000 yen sake in Japan costs about 2,000 Taiwanese dollars, which is about 5 times more than in Japan. If only it were cheaper 😓.
This is the best hit of the last few months. I guess what I like these days is the umami-sour type. I like the balance of umami and acidity.
I enjoyed it cold, but it might be good warmed up.

A soft and mild sake that is not too assertive.
It's not old-fashioned with a crisp taste, but it's not flashy either.
Looks good warmed up too!
I heard that there is a sake cellar in Haretoke, so I wanted to buy some when I went there, but it's not easy because of the annoying akko-michi.
Our local sake.
Hatsuyuki sake cup is "Sakura Sarasara".
I drank it last July. 😅
I remembered it when I went back to my hometown this GW and reviewed it.
It was just like the cute label says, it had a gentle and refreshing sweetness on the palate 🙄.
I think I was drinking it as a food sake because it's more on the dry side.
Maybe. 🤣
I forgot to buy it on this trip home but I'm rooting for you 😆👍
Hi MAJ 😃.
Last July 😆 memory test 🤗I'm curious about the sake 🍶 which is more dry with a beautiful bottle and label 😊Today, just when I was starting to drink sake, I raised the dusk orange 🍊 which MAJ told me about 👋.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby! 😄
My memory test is getting pretty out of date. 🤣But taste is just a feeling, that's how it is 😆👍I also had a twilight orange the other day! It was really good, but the review is yet to come. 🤣🤣
