This is a bottle with a surprisingly good sense of naming that makes the word "comet" read "sha". It is a product of the Endo Sake Brewery in Suzaka, Shinshu. The brewery's website says only that it is as impressive as a comet! It is probably a reference to Char Aznable, the Red Comet, but it is too early to say.
I had been curious about this sake for a long time, so I picked it up at the sake corner of Bic Camera Shinjuku West Exit Store. The refreshing acidity is a modern taste. It is fruity and easy to drink, and I could drink it three times as much as usual.
Alcohol content: 15%.
Sake degree : +1
Acidity : 1.7
Rice: Miyamanishiki (Nagano Prefecture)
Rice polishing ratio: 70
Good evening, Eririn-san! Thank you for your comment.
Please make it a story! I played with the sake in my review because it was just like you said, but I think it is actually a good sake, easy to find.
Is the aroma subdued?
Refreshing impression
When tasted, sweetness precedes
Soft sweetness.
Sourness overlaps the sweetness.
There is a sense of refreshment.
Easy to drink.
...Though the impact is a little weak.
The white label on the transparent bottle
helps to create a sense of freshness.
