This sake is characterized by the addition of Yaso gin (locally produced in Niigata Prefecture) made with mugwort, and has a low alcohol content of 12 degrees with bubbles!
Abe, the vector is different from the old Niigata light and dry, but it has a modern flavor that makes the most of the acidity, and the main ingredient is the umami of the rice🌾, which has evolved over the years.
It has an alcohol content of 12, is light and easy to drink, and the 80% rice polishing ratio is surprising to see after drinking.
Serve with udo with walnuts, fried chicken, fried octopus, and fried potatoes.
This documentary was produced by a broadcasting station in Niigata and aired on Fuji TV affiliate in August 2023.
The documentary is titled "Kura wo Tsugaru: The Future of Sake Brewed by the Sixth Generation."
I had recorded it on my Blu-ray hard disk, but finally watched it and found it to be very good, making me want to drink more and more abeshu in the future.

Carbonation when opened
Aroma of calm acidity
Light sweetness, bitterness and acidity.
Clear aftertaste.
As the description says, it is a food sake.
The second bottle for drinking at my parents' house in GW was Abe Black.
It has a citrusy sweet and sour taste,
The bitter taste in the latter half of the bottle made it easy to drink,
It is very light and easy to drink,
It is very light, easy to drink, and goes down smoothly.
It is very light and easy to drink and goes down smoothly. It is a very modern type of Niigata sake, but I think it is because I drank it after drinking Kuheiji,
I don't know if it was the richness or the low alcohol content,
It was too light and not very satisfying,
It was too light and not drinkable...
However, I like Abe itself and it was delicious.
Good evening, Shonan no Han 😃.
Sometimes the order in which you drink them can change the way you feel about the flavor 😅Abe-chan 🖤It might be different if you go it alone 🤗.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby!
I think it would have been even better if it was just the Abbey😅On the other side of the coin, I think the Kuheiji students were a strike for us 😊.
It's hard to say though, it's all about taste and mood 🤣.
From the sweet and gorgeous aroma of white peaches, the pleasantly intoxicating gaseous sensation is gently enveloped by the softness of the soft orikarami, and the clear bitter taste from the sweet and delicious aroma is refreshingly crisp.
Abe Pink to drink in the beautiful spring sunlight 🌸☺️
The first day of opening 🍶...
The appearance is a misty white.
The aroma is sweet and gorgeous with bitter nuances.
Aromas of pear, banana, and white peach.
The rice feeling is white egg dumplings.
On the palate, in the fluffy texture of the tailings, the stimulation of gassy sensation is also a little gentle.
The incoming deep sweetness is faintly outlined.
The edgy acidity is softened by the roundness of the orikara.
From the mid-palate, the taste is fuller and a bit more bitter.
There is a sense of fluffiness in the finish and lingering aftertaste.
🍶Opened on the second day...
The bitterness that felt a little strong on the first day has lessened and it feels intoxicating. ☺️
The aroma is still sweet and gorgeous peach 🍑.
The entry is sweet, with a refreshing acidity and a pleasantly intoxicating gaseous sensation that leaves you feeling stimulated.
Sweet and delicious~☺️
From the mid-palate onward, the freshly cut pear taste with rice flavor flows gently and clearly through the intertwined tailings, and the finish is bitter and refreshing.
Delicious 😊.
The aroma is sweet and gorgeous, the taste is sweet and delicious, then clear and bitter.
It was finished in 2 days!
Good morning, Aladdin 😃.
Abe Pink 🩷 is delicious 😋.
Midori💚 was also very tasty and I highly recommend 💚 as well ❣️The taste seems to vary a lot from tank to tank, so you can also compare the same label 👌
Hi Hina Hana Mama 😃.
Abe, I love it too 😊.
The green one is Rakufu Mai 🌾I drank it last year and was very impressed 😄.
I wanted to drink it again this year, but it's rather hard to buy abe in Kansai 🥲.
I'm also curious about the different lots: ☺️
Good evening Aladdin 😃.
Good to see you up there for the first time in a while 🤗.
I remember Abechan🩷 being the sweetest in the series 🧐! The result is delicious though 😋.
Good morning Jay & Nobby 😃.
I can't check in or comment myself often but my love for sake hasn't changed 😁.
I was so happy to hear that Abe Pink is sweet and delicious, I really wanted to drink it 🍶☺️
I checked the distributorships and found that Bishakudo was one of them, so I went to the store in Nagareyama, but unfortunately they didn't have it. I went to Tsukuba, which was only a train ride away, and found that it was sold there, so I was able to get it.
The bottle was opened with a lively sound. The fruity flavor is irresistible. However, I felt that the nuance was quite different from the sake I have had in the past. I would like to drink it again to see what the difference is.
Very tasty.
Notes of pear, whey, apricot and citrus.
Light and slightly effervescent mouthfeel.
Sweet and sour, lush.
Great flavors, citrusy and refreshing finish.
Serve with edamame tofu, caprese, grilled mehikari, sauteed scallops, and koshiabura tempura.
Purchased online at Saito Sake Shop in Tochigi Prefecture.
Mild fruity aroma.
It is delicious with a sweet and juicy taste. It also has a nice sharpness.
