In 2026, we started with Toyo Bijin!
The aroma and sweetness are more subdued and refreshing like water than when we drank it before at the restaurant.
It was the perfect sake for Osechi.

This sake is a limited edition for Toyo Bijin restaurants.
According to the store staff, it is made from unrefined rice, but seems to be made in the same way as Junmai Daiginjyo.
It has a fruity taste reminiscent of melon, which is typical of Toyo Bijin.
The taste also has a pronounced sweetness, which is also typical of Toyo Bijin.
The aftertaste is slightly refreshing.
It has been a long time since I have tasted Toyo Bijin. It has a fine sweetness, followed by a sourness that quickly evaporates. It is still good to drink.
