It is a souvenir of Kusatsu from his father. It was a refreshing, slightly spicy sake with a hint of sweetness. I think it can be served warmed.

It has a samurai-like design and a blood splattering color, and it has a sake level of +15! I couldn't help but be curious about this one, so I bought it! When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was dry. It also has a savory aroma like steamed rice. The dry, light flavor and the richness of Junmai are well balanced on the palate, giving it a slippery sensation. The acidity also makes it taste slightly citrus-like 🍊. It smells like ginjo, and in a good way, it is not like Junmai! The aftertaste is also refreshing and easy to drink from start to finish👍. I thought it would be a simple dry sake, but it was surprisingly fruity and refreshingly delicious!

It has a refreshing green apple-like flavor and fades quickly. As the day goes by, the flavor also develops and becomes more savory.

Zankara, which means "cutting spiciness," is recommended for those who want to taste sake-like flavor. It is a regular sake that can be served at various temperatures. Recommended dishes: classic Japanese cuisine and simple flavors (sushi, cheese, etc.)" (from Gunma Sake Brewers Association website) It is a very refreshing sake. It's so refreshing! I paired it with salmon and drank it straight through.

Sake received as a souvenir from Gunma. The label is fancy. Easy to drink for a dry sake. Junmai-shu is a must for dry sake drinkers. For a sake like Higen 　Higen was created with the desire to create a sake that customers would dream of tasting again. The sake is brewed in the lush greenery of the Azuma Valley in Gunma Prefecture, known as the "Yabakei of Kanto," and uses soft water from the Asama mountain range. The sake is brewed at an altitude of about 600 meters above sea level under the slogan of "making sake that goes best with vegetables in Japan. Spiciness and deliciousness. A solid drinking experience. A very dry sake with a sake strength of 15. Zankara, which means "cutting spiciness," is recommended for those who want to taste the true flavor of sake. It is a regular sake that can be enjoyed at a variety of temperatures.

This sake is made by Asama Shuzo, the same brewery as the last almanac sake we drank. The aroma is good and a bit schwiffy. After opening the bottle, this sake was also a little sharp and had a bitter aftertaste, but when I drank it the next day, it seemed much mellower. The next day, however, I felt that it had mellowed considerably.

Subdued aroma The sweetness and umami of the sake are concentrated, but the aftertaste is clean and easy to drink. The alcohol taste lingers on the back of the tongue for a while. It can be enjoyed as a heated sake. Enjoy with home-style dishes such as nabe (hot pot) and stir-fry. 3.5
