It's autumn again!
I haven't had it yet, but I'm under the impression that the image of this land is that of a mild sake, and I'm under the impression that it goes with everything!
For some reason, I found myself alone in Yamagata over the weekend and stayed overnight in Sendai. The sake in the back of the picture is Sendai station 🚄!
I chose this one to drink, which is hard to find in Tokyo (I remember there were also Urakasumi, Hakurakusei, Atago no Matsu, etc.).
The first sip was fruity, but the aftertaste was more umami, and the sake was exquisitely balanced!
It was late at night, and I was happy to finish this one drink and return to the hotel, but I forgot to stock up on sake at the site 😭.
I'm determined to go back again soon, before it snows ‼️

Purchase at Sendai Airport
It has a mild and fluffy taste with no corners, probably because it has been matured.
It has a slight sourness and a good sharpness, but it is also gently finished.
It is mellow, but not at all dull.
We were recommended to try the sake that went well with the delicious akitogi, and we were served the sake that went well with the akitogi. The sake was sharp and dry, and went perfectly with the big, fatty swordfish.
Alcohol content 15%.
Polishing ratio 50%.
Sake from Miyagi
The taste is gentle, and if you are not careful, it can be quite intoxicating. It is very easy to drink, so beware of the opposite.
It was purchased at the brewery. This sake also won the gold medal at the Delicious Sake in a Wine Glass Awards 2025. Congratulations!
This sake has a subtle melon-like aroma. It is said to be a sake that tastes great in a wine glass, but it also tastes great in a sake cup.
It was an easy to drink sake with mainly sweetness and less acidity than the raw sake. Thank you very much for the meal 😊.
It is a gift from a person to whom my parents have always been indebted. Words like "kurahakushi," or "hidden warehouse," are very heartwarming.
The aroma has a hint of rummy aroma. The flavor is centered on a slightly strong acidity and sweetness. Although the acidity is a little strong, the sake is easy to drink without any peculiarities. The modest aroma keeps you from getting tired of drinking it, and it is a good sake to drink with food. The alcohol is mild and it was served cold. Thank you very much for your kindness.
