The sake is of very high quality but relatively reasonable.
It has a slightly bitter grape flavor.
The aftertaste is crisp.
The high alcohol content of the original sake makes it very drinkable.
Sugiyuu is a brand I learned about at the Saizuru Bar in Tsuruoka, Yamagata Prefecture.
Recently, I often come across the cat series at Noe, San!
This time it's hiyaoroshi, full moon and cat 🐈🐱.
Hiyaoroshi is not so easy to find on the internet.
This time, too, I was able to confirm it with information from Fukuhara Sake Shop!
It was a light and delicious sake!

Thank you for your comment, WOM. Yamagata has many famous sake brands, so I have not paid much attention to Sugiyuu until now, but they seem to have changed their image recently. I will drink the Cat series again when I find it 🍶.

Mild aroma. It has sweetness, acidity and astringency.
It has a slightly bitter aftertaste.
The sweetness is weak and the sake has a great umami flavor.
It is delicious with fried bean curd and potato. It is a refreshing yet lingering sake.

I was at a local liquor store that I frequent, and this one, sort of caught my eye.
I don't recall ever seeing it (there were so many of them, most of which I haven't even drunk)
Simple (simplified) label lol.
I don't know if it's to show the lees inside or what, but...it emphasizes the oli and I can't help but notice it😳.

When you drink it, it's shwashy 🫧? Fresh type!
Not strong acidity, a little unique sourness?
Not too sweet for this type?
But this is also a dangerous one that goes down slooooowly😜.
