Hot sake. The aroma is like a faint banana or honey. Surprisingly acidic when you drink it. It has a clear texture. Aromatic flavor with a hint of koji. It has a good volume and smooth texture. Medium or slightly light. Slightly dry impression. A warmed sake that is good as a mealtime drink. It would be better with a less intense flavorful food item. Preference 3/5 stars.

I was attracted by the austere label color. The bottle was opened without any problems, although there is a possibility that the crown may fly off due to carbonation during fermentation. It has a mild aroma, and when you drink it, it has the freshness of new sake, slightly spicy and dry, light and crisp!

4.4/5.0 It has a good balance of lightness, hardness and umami. It is a good match for those who prefer spicy sake. I had it with pickles and omizuke, of course, but today I had it with nabe (hot pot). Thank you very much 😊.

The moment you put it in, it has a strong sweet taste, not too pungent, and a nice clean aftertaste! I like it because it has a strong flavor!

A bottle purchased at the brewery's direct sales store at the Toko Sake Brewery Museum, which I stopped by during a trip to Yonezawa City, Yamagata Prefecture, in September. The rice used is 100% Yamagata-grown Mai rice. Polishing ratio is 55 The alcohol content is 16%. Sake level is unknown, but it is a dry ginjo.  The aroma when the bottle is opened is calm and clear, with a fresh, cool, green apple-like aroma. It is combined with a slightly pear-like fruity aroma.  When poured into a sake cup, it presents a clear, transparent, and extremely pale golden color. The thickening is light.  When you take a sip, it has a sharp and clear mouthfeel with a slight fruitiness like green apples. In the mid-palate, a firm core of rice flavor emerges, followed by a soft sweetness. The finish is very crisp, with a dry aftertaste that quickly disappears. The lingering aftertaste is short, leaving the tongue with remnants of the rice flavor and a slight bitterness. The impression is that it has a clear sharpness. The mouthfeel is smooth, with a slight roundness and thickness on the tongue, dry but not too hard. Personally, I prefer to drink it cold or at room temperature, as the flavor changes.

Sake served at a friend's house. One sip and it tasted dry! It tastes like a dry sake. Yes, it is just as the label says. It has a light aroma and flavor. It's been a long time since we've had a chance to talk. We used to talk about children... Talking about caring for parents and end-of-life care! It was a day that I think I'm doing okay because I have this kind of drinking time 😌.
