うや
I went shopping at Aeon today and found this Toko on the shelf near the expiration date in the sake section. I've never had a sake from Yamagata before so I bought this one. It's a dry and robust sake ☺️. I like the taste. I thought I've never had a sake from Yamagata prefecture but I did. I had a hard time deciding between it and Nanbu Bijin but it didn't matter.

This sake was established in the Azuchi-Momoyama period and is made by Kojima Sohonten in Yonezawa. It has a melon-like fruity taste. It has a refreshing and delicious taste.

August 13, 2023 Dinner at home. In the latter half of the 9-day weekend, the family enjoys a gift from my sister. The first thing we did was to drink Toko sake as an aperitif. First, we opened a bottle of Toko's Ginjo Umeshu as an aperitif. The first thing I did was to open a bottle of Toko's Ginjo-Umeshu as an aperitif. It has a gorgeous ginjo aroma that spreads in the mouth. The aroma of ginjo spreads in the mouth. The ginjo aroma is quite strong and reminds us of Torikai, a rice shochu. It has a very strong ginjo aroma and a mouthfeel reminiscent of Torikai, a rice shochu (perhaps because it is based on Kastori shochu?). (Is it because it is based on a sake lees shochu?). It is very rich, so it can be drunk on the rocks or on the rocks. It has a very rich flavor, so it tastes very It has a strong flavor when drunk on the rocks. It is very easy to drink with soda. it is very easy to drink with soda. It is too much to drink I drank it on the rocks and drank it in small sips. but it was so good that I drank it all in one night. I finished it in one night because it was so delicious.

Yonezawa City. It is fruity with a moderate aroma and sweetness. It is easy to drink with a good mouthfeel and aftertaste.

It sinks into the body more gently than any other sake I have ever had. I like to drink it on mornings when the sun shines through the curtains and I wake up naturally.

a little spicy Clear and transparent I'm on a business trip to Yonezawa City, Yamagata Prefecture, so I'll have some local sake. Yum! I modestly paired it with a skewer of Yonezawa beef, but the meat was delicious! The sake was good too!
