#Sake
Sasamasamune, the first kijoshu. I'm not sure if it's cosmetically good, but I like the taste. I hope they continue to challenge themselves and produce more tasty and less expensive kijo-zake.
Second bottle of FUKUSHIMA
A little rude, but I've never heard of this brand.
I'm still a newbie when it comes to Fukushima sake.
Like Hirotogawa, all Yume no Kou is used, but this is a raw sake and 13% low alcohol.
I expect it to be sweeter than Hirotogawa because it was pressed relatively early.
The aroma is relatively classic, but very sweet.
This may be the first sweet but not fruity sake I've tasted.
When I put it in my mouth, I felt the classic dry taste for a moment, but soon a strong sweetness came out, and the two conflicting tastes clashed with each other, making it a very unique taste.
The label on the back said it was a marriage of spiciness and sweetness, but I'm not sure about the marriage, though the blitz-like experience is exactly like that.
Personally, I don't think I like it very much.
It's not that it's bad, it's that it doesn't go well together.
I think it's a very unique sake and you have to choose who you drink it with.
Rum.
It's a collaboration.
I thought it was just this one, but they came out one after another.
Collaboration? The price is expensive.
The sake rice is 100% Kitakata-produced Yume-no-Kou.
The aroma has a sharp alcohol taste.
Nuh!
Is this a bad one?
Gulp!
Huh?
Oh, maaaay!
It's so sweet.
It's low-alcohol (13%), so you can drink it smoothly.
It might be okay as a collaboration product.
It seems to be okay even for those who bought it for the sake of Rum-chan.
It was a little too sweet, but it was easy to drink.
This is one of the bottles from the FUKUSHIMA SAKE PROJECT.
Sasamasa Sasamune made the brewery's first kijo sake.
This is the first time for me to drink Sasamasamune.
Opening the bottle
It has a fresh aroma ☺️
Tastes like muscat 🤤.
As you drink it, the sweetness increases, but it's rounded sweetness makes you feel like you're drinking a soft drink. I can't stop drinking 😅
It's like a dessert 😍.
